Social Work started with wealthy white woman in the 1800’s wanting to help disadvantaged
individuals, making decisions on who they think needed help and who didn’t based on what they
thought poverty looked like
Oppression:
Exploitation
work/labour which benefits the dominant group, economically/financially, socially,
politically
dominant group sets terms of exchange i.e. labour costs low/profits high
deepens inequities
Marginalization
category of people isolated from social, political and economic spaces
based on ideologies, assumptions, stereotypes and prejudices
marginalized depend on dominant group for support
Powerlessness
those without power or access to power have little or no autonomy, authority over their
work lives
few options for developing skills to promote themselves
Cultural Imperialism
dominant groups is the norm
stereotypes and ideologies become so normalized that they are invisible, therefore
difficult to contest
allows others to be grouped by supposed characteristics associated with “them” - white
males are not grouped in the same way
Violence
becomes “acceptable” and in some cases expected because of social context and group
identity
threat of violence always exists
