measuring student learning in social justice courses the diversity and Oppression scale
Journal of Social Work Education, 2015Co-Authors: Liliane Cambraia Windsor, Clayton T Shorkey, Du Wayne BattleAbstract:The Diversity and Oppression Scale (DOS) is a standardized instrument measuring self-reported student learning about diversity and Oppression based on requirements of the Council on Social Work Education. DOS was tested with social work students in 2 major North American universities. Factor structure was examined using exploratory factor analysis (N = 329). Predictive validity was tested with a confirmatory factor analysis and paired sample t-tests (N = 329). Construct validity was tested by examining correlations between DOS and existing scales measuring social justice, Oppression, cultural competence, counselor burnout, empathy, and social desirability bias (N = 87). DOS has 4 factors: cultural diversity self-confidence (α = .90; 11 items), diversity and Oppression (α = .69; 8 items), social worker/client congruence (α = .84; 3 items), and social worker responsibilities (α = .61; 3 items).

Challenging Controlling Images, Oppression, Poverty, and Other Structural Constraints: Survival Strategies Among African–American Women in Distressed Households
Journal of African American Studies, 2011Co-Authors: Liliane Cambraia Windsor, Eloise Dunlap, Andrew GolubAbstract:Powerful controlling images perpetuate misguided messages about impoverished African–American women that contribute to the Oppression these women endure. These images inform policies and behavior that create and maintain structural barriers such as lack of access to education and meaningful employment further marginalizing oppressed individuals. This article uses in-depth interview data to analyze interlocking Oppressions in the lived experience of impoverished African–American women. The authentic women’s voices presented serve as a counter narrative of resistance. Our larger goal in writing this paper is to encourage the public, policy makers, service providers, and impoverished African–American women themselves to fight against controlling images by deconstructing personal biases, educating the public, and developing culturally congruent interventions to social problems.

understanding resisting and overcoming Oppression toward psychopolitical validity
American Journal of Community Psychology, 2003Co-Authors: Isaac PrilleltenskyAbstract:My first objective in this paper is to synthesize, synoptically, the literature on Oppression and liberation with the contributions to this special issue. To fulfil this aim I introduce a framework for understanding, resisting, and overcoming Oppression. The framework consists of psychopolitical well-being; experiences, consequences, and sources of Oppression; and actions toward liberation. Each of these components is subdivided into 3 domains of Oppression and well-being: collective, relational, and personal. Experiences of suffering as well as resistance and agency are part of the framework. My second objective is to offer ways of closing the gap between research and action on Oppression and liberation. To do so I suggest 2 types of psychopolitical validity: epistemic and transformative.

polities change Oppression remains on the psychology and politics of Oppression
Political Psychology, 1996Co-Authors: Isaac Prilleltensky, Lev GonickAbstract:While both postindustrial and emerging states face economic, cultural, and political changes, the constant of Oppression remains. Economically and culturally marginalized groups continue to endure untold degrees of suffering. From a moral point of view, it is imperative that social scientists attend to the needs of the oppressed This paper examines the dynamics of Oppression in postindustrial and emerging states from both a psychological and political perspective. The reality of Oppression may be understood from various levels of analysis, from the macrolevel of global economic and political structures, to the microlevel of internalized psychological images of inferiority. A comprehensive analysis of Oppression will emerge only from an interdisciplinary approach that integrates the political with the psychological. Otherwise, efforts to reduce conditions of Oppression will be inhibited by limited perspectives that neglect either the internal or external domains. We explore some of the psychological mechanisms accounting for Oppression, such as learned helplessness, internalization of hegemonic self-rejecting views, and obedience to authority. Some of the political mechanisms accounting for Oppression in emerging countries include the oppressive structure of international financial systems and internal colonization. We conclude by outlining the process of conscientization necessary to overcome conditions of Oppression at all levels of analysis.

appropriated racial Oppression implications for mental health in whites and blacks
Social Science & Medicine, 2019Co-Authors: Shellae H Versey, Courtney C Cogburn, Clara L Wilkins, Nakita JosephAbstract:Abstract Racism has been examined in its many forms. Scholarship regarding how individuals personally experience, cope with, and manage racial Oppression is still developing. The term “appropriated racial Oppression” reframes the construct “internalized racism” as a process whereby members of a group appropriate a dominant group's ideology, adapt their behavior, and perceive a subordinate status as deserved, natural, and inevitable. The expression of appropriated racial Oppression is based on a variety of complicated and interacting processes, such as incentivized societal norms, critical consciousness, and racial socialization. We conceptualize appropriated racial Oppression as a mediated process that yields both direct and indirect health outcomes for both non-dominant and dominant groups. The latter is critical because little research examines how racism affects dominant groups and their health. In this commentary, we examine two examples where appropriating racial Oppression may confer both negative and adaptive outcomes. Although we highlight examples rooted in White and Black racial experiences, we briefly consider implications for intersectional and multiple marginalized identities as well. Future research recommendations for psychology, public health and interdisciplinary research are discussed.

True Choice in Reproductive Care: Using Cultural Humility and Explanatory Models to Support Reproductive Justice in Primary Care
Journal of General Internal Medicine, 2020Co-Authors: Megha Shankar, Meagan Williams, Adelaide Hearst McclintockAbstract:Reproductive justice is the human right to maintain personal bodily autonomy, have children, not have children, and to parent children in safe and sustainable communities. Historically, marginalized individuals have experienced reproductive Oppression in multiple forms. This Oppression continues in modern times through health policy and patient-clinician communication. To combat this, the framework of reproductive justice outlines four key actions: analyzing power systems, addressing intersecting Oppressions, centering the most marginalized, and joining together across issues and identities. Primary care clinicians have a unique role and responsibility to carry out these four key actions in order to provide patient centered reproductive care. To translate reproductive justice into clinical practice, clinicians care can use reflective practice, the framework of cultural humility, and the concepts from the explanatory model of illness.
