Activism and American Indian Issues: Opportunities and Roles for Social Workers
Abstract
In spite of a professional tradition which includes activism, many social workers who are cognizant of issues of cultural diversity focus their efforts on helping individuals rather than on social justice or macro-level activities. This article discusses how social workers can take on culturally appropriate, activist roles in American Indian communities. In order to work effectively on these issues, activists must understand some important background information, be informed of current issues and events, and participate in activities which respect the sovereignty and self-determination of the First Nations. The author's experience of a recent struggle in an American Indian community illustrates roles for social work practice.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
