Discussion: Personal and Professional Social Work Values Heterosexism is defined as "the discrimination or prejudice by heterosexuals against homosexuals" (merriam-webster.com) and is predicated on the belief that being heterosexual is the norm and the only accepted type of relationship. Everyday heterosexism is exemplified in our media, our policies, and daily practices. By making these assumptions, social workers can be in part culpable for the oppression and marginalization experienced by the LGBTQ community. As a profession, social work embraces diversity and strives to ensure equal rights for all. The National Association of Social Workers (NASW) is committed to supporting the needs of these groups and, in turn, they created the National Committee on Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Issues. During this week's discussion you will be asked to consider how one's own personal views on sexual orientation may clash with the profession's stance. By Day 3 Post a scenario of how a social worker's personal, ethical, and moral values in relation to the LGBTQ community might conflict with those of their clients. Explain the distinction between personal ethics and values and professional ethics and values evident in the social work profession in addressing this community. Be specific and explain how this distinction relates to the scenario you posted. Also explain how prejudice and bias might create barriers to fulfilling your professional responsibility to the LGBTQ community. Assignment 1: Project Progress In Week 10, you will submit a recorded PowerPoint presentation on a cultural event in which you participate. This final project allows faculty to evaluate how you integrate the various concepts related to diversity, human rights, and social justice. You will be expected to evaluate course content as you share aspects of your experience. This Week, you are asked to provide an updated on your progress. It is recommended that you to attend the event no later than Week 8 to prevent last minute challenges with this assignment, such as in the case when an event is cancelled. The event should be open to the public and be related to a diverse social identity. Places that may list cultural events, meetings, or experiences include your local or neighborhood newspaper, church bulletins, local colleges, primary schools, or your local library. Below are some possible ideas: Check your Office of Multicultural Affairs Town hall meeting in another part of town Local churches Local training Local Agencies Identify local multicultural communities to see if there are any events Pride Event/Parade Contact a town visitor center Civic Committee If you have difficulty identifying a cultural event in your community, please contact your Instructor immediately. For this Week’s assignment, consider a short checklist of items to confirm you are prepared for this assignment. By Day 5 of Week 7 Submit your response to the following prompts.

You are to collaborate (i.e. work together on each question), not delegate questions to each member. Please upload this assignment to Blackboard (if you are physically unable to provide a physical copy due to travel). Please do not submit this exam through email. No late exams will be accepted. 1) For W.E.B. Du Bois (“Conservation of Races”) and Vincent Harding (“The Vocation of the Black Scholar”) what is the role of intellectual work in the pursuit of freedom? How do their positions compare? In what ways does Cedric Robinson’s (Black Movements in America excerpt) understanding of “two alternative political cultures” align with Du Bois’s and Harding’s perspective? How might we use this work to frame issues that continue to persist? 2) Which of the five methods for approaching Black intellectual genealogy outlined by Carr, singularly, or in combination with others, provides the most salient means for studying the Black Power Movement? How would you use these same methods to categorize the work of Peniel Joseph (Waiting ‘til the Midnight Hour) and Joshua Bloom and Waldo Martin (Black Against Empire)? Why? 3) In what ways did Black Power exist as a concept or orientation before June 1966? How does Peniel Joseph develop this history? Who are the key actors and organizations involved in these movements in the 1950s and early 1960s? How does this Black Power “pre-history” contribute to our understanding of what occurred after June 1966? 4) What were the principal motivations around the conception of organizations like the Group on Advanced Leadership and the Freedom Now Party? Who were the key figures involved and what did they contribute? How did they energize political movements in northern and urban settings? What was the relationship of the organizing efforts like the Grassroots Leadership Conference to the Southern freedom struggle? Why did prominent figures in the North develop critiques of the Southern freedom struggle? 5) What was the context surrounding the June 1966 call for “Black Power”? How did the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee engage other civil rights organizations during this particular moment? What were the implications for the evolution of Black Power and/or Black nationalist consciousness in the years to come? How did figures like Stokely Carmichael conceptualize and justify the need or desire for Black Power? 6) How did the Black Power movement approach the question of internationalism or transnationalism? In what ways did the concept extend beyond the borders of the United States? How did the Cold War influence these developments? How did the Pan-Africanist movement connect to the Black Power movement? What were the critical developments that extended these convergences of struggle into the early 1970s? 7) How d.

Inspired by the excellent work of the MIT Libraries, I recently advocated for, and was successful in creating, a Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice Working Group at the Vassar College Libraries. I co-chair this group along with my colleague, Rachel Finn, and our membership represents a cross-section of library departments, and includes a mix of managers, administrators, and unionized staff. Though our work is currently in the beginning stages, I am interested in developing a presentation for NASIG that looks specifically at ways in which values of social justice can be integrated into the day-to-day work of technical services. Frequently, social justice initiatives are thought of as activities belonging to outreach staff, or more public-facing staff; such initiatives exist alongside the daily work of librarianship rather than being fully integrated within it. I think there are opportunities for this work to happen within the technical services sphere, but it requires taking a hard look at existing workflows and staff capacity. Much of technical services work is built around the idea of "efficiencies," but what are we sacrificing in the name of efficiency? In the name of conveniences? In the zine librarian community (in which I am active) we have standards surrounding the idea of ethical acquisitions--what would that look like if it were to be developed for technical services more broadly? In the area of collections, how could we enhance diversity and inclusion by backing out of the big deal and/or approval plans? What would the impact on technical services departments be and how would be absorb that work? In the area of vendor performance, are we ready to sever ties with corporations that aren't centering social justice in their own work? Again, this work at Vassar is only in the early stages; however, this is a moment when Vassar College as a whole is looking very seriously at transforming the academic and residential life of our community through the work of the Engaged Pluralism Initiative. My hope is that we will be able to build on this momentum and contribute to positive changes in campus climate. I would like the opportunity to speak about our process, enumerate our short-term goals, and talk more about our aspirations for bringing real change to existing department workflows.
