Drawing on original qualitative research with Black and Brown mothers, this groundbreaking book reveals how racism, White dominance and structural oppression shape their experiences in the child protection system. It introduces the SAWUBONA model – an Afro-centric, anti-racist and anti-oppressive practice framework that values indigenous knowledge, fosters cultural humility and centres empathetic, collaborative relationships between practitioners and service users.
Offering critical insight and a practical pathway for decolonising practice, this book is essential reading for academics and professionals in social work, education, policing and the wider safeguarding community seeking to challenge racial disparities and embed culturally responsive approaches.
Carlene Cornish is Associate Professor and Admissions Director of Social Work at the University of East Anglia, Board Member and UK Representative of the Commonwealth Organisation of Social Work, and Member of the British Association for Social Work (BASW) International Committee.
