Reimagining Anti-Oppression Social Work Practice

This informative resource responds to recent developments in social work practices in North America and abroad through its exploration of anti-oppression practice. This groundbreaking collection demonstrates the transformative potential of inclusive practices, such as in Indigenous practice principles, through concrete examples of anti-oppression work with marginalized populations. Contributors also reveal how anti-oppression approaches more strongly combat a diversity of social issues, including anti-Black sanism, normative constructions of grief, discrimination against queer populations, and children and youth injustices.

Accessible and engaging, Reimagining Anti-Oppression Social Work Practice will appeal to industry professionals and undergraduate students interested in examining original research on social work practitioners' experiences with anti-oppression practices.
