Racism And Hiv/Aids Among African Americans : Dismantling One Addresses The Other, H. Timothy Ewing

Capstone Collection

Nationally, HIV/AIDS transmission rates are rising in African American communities while decreasing in white, gay communities where the disease has been the most devastating.

Lifting The "Political Gag Order": Breaking The Silence Around Partner Violence In Ethnic Minority Families, Carolyn M. West Dec 1997

Lifting The "Political Gag Order": Breaking The Silence Around Partner Violence In Ethnic Minority Families, Carolyn M. West

Carolyn M. West

This chapter focuses on the four largest groups in the United States: African Americans, Latinos, Asian Americans, and American Indians. First, a brief description of each group is presented. Second, the literature on partner violence among these groups is reviewed. Specifically, ethnic differences, demographic and cultural factors that potentially contribute to higher rates of partner violence among ethnic minorities, and limitations of the research are addressed. Third, therapeutic implications, including barriers to help seeking, hallmarks of culturally appropriate assessments, and culture-specific treatment recommendations are discussed. Finally, recommendations for policy are suggested.
