“…Reflexivity of social location—especially race and class—is essential for psychologists who want to promote egalitarian values because, as Usmani and Zachariah (2021) argue, “class‐based redistribution is the only viable antiracist tool in the racial egalitarian's tool kit” (p. 78). We introduced reparative approaches, through race‐based reparations and a class‐based approach (see Darity & Mullen, 2020; Reed, 2020; Usmani & Zachariah, 2021), siding with structural thinking as the psychological mechanism to raise consciousness for both approaches among the oppressed class (i.e., CC: Freire, 1970) and professional managerial class (i.e., SC: Hansen & Metzl, 2019).…”

“…Reparations aim to redress racial inequities caused by slavery, racial segregation, and present‐day racial discrimination (Darity & Mullen, 2020; Glaude, 2020; Hannah‐Jones et al, 2021). These activist scholars suggest the U.S. government and its citizens must acknowledge slavery and structural racism, redress racial inequities, and facilitate closure through racial healing (Darity & Mullen, 2020). Therefore, community psychologists must determine the receptivity of a race‐based, class‐based, or race‐class framing within and across communities and the associated reparative approach (race‐based or class‐based intervention) most likely to redress racial inequities and facilitate a moral reckoning.…”

Highlights• Community psychologists can support activists working toward a moral reckoning on structural racism.• The political and commercial determinants maintain structural racism and racial inequities.• Structural thinking and structural intervention are essential for addressing structural racism.• First-order change interventions should build structural competency or critical consciousness.• Second-order change interventions should leverage systemic-level promotion and prevention.

“…If we set our minds we could disallow a range of blackwhite disparities in the prevalence of chronic disease including (Caribbean) "amputation capitals" caused by metabolic and "blood sugar" syndromes as well as excessive deaths from infection. Targeting the vulnerable may be more effective, more workable and more affordable than other proposals or repatriating looted cultural artefacts and could be off-set by other stolen assets from corrupt dictators laundered in the West as more recent "sins of the fathers" [57, [312][313][314][315][316][317][318][319].…”

North-South variation in the supply of meat has always been present. Sharing of meat was the rule but in the multi-centric Neolithic revolution when domestication of animals and plants co-evolved class differences became pronounced-aristocrats and inferior proletariats and “lesser breeds and lower orders” started to form. The distribution of natural domesticates was uneven with the near-east and a temperate band across Europe well off compared with Africa and the Americas. The Columbian exchange changed this as meat became abundant in the New World who then exported to Europe. Wars, expropriations and genocides were over the meat supply and acquiring pastureland or water. Colonial plantation profits paid for meat imports from “settler colonies” indigenous or poor peoples on low meat pro-pellagrous diets were considered inferior whatever their colour and had poorer health and life expectancy. Attempts to correct hunger in the resultant ramshackle “Third world” concentrated on calories fuelling population booms and busts and delaying demographic, epidemiological and economic transitions. High meat variances are narrowing in China and Asia but need help elsewhere in the South. Dangers of not developing with a safe and sufficient meat supply include the emergence of zoonoses and mass migration. Reparations, rehabilitation and rejuvenation should concentrate on reconstituting a meat commons giving us a shot at redemption and survival.

“…The progress of social movements of the 1960s and 1970s was replaced by the belief that human worth was based on individual material wealth accumulation and high social status (Monbiot, 2016). According to Darity and Mullen (2020), wealth has become the primary avenue to freedom, choice, and access to social goods. It is a proxy by which to measure general wellbeing.…”

Black trans people frequently deal with the violent consequences of systemic erasure. Particularly, Black trans people experience structural racism and oppression that socially and economically isolates them, creating conditions for a unique experience of loneliness. In this essay, I engage queer of color critique to explore structural forces that work together to systematically and violently exclude Black trans people. The purpose of this conceptual piece is to advance loneliness theory to include structural isolation to explain manifestations of loneliness due to discrimination and oppression of Black trans people. I discuss my motivations and methods to engage in this work, my theoretical framework, followed by a critique of the theoretical underpinnings of loneliness research. Later, I identify and define three manifestations of structural isolation—anti-Black racism, cisheterosexism, and neoliberalism. Then, I discuss how these forces work together to produce structural isolation among Black trans people and how that isolation places them at risk for loneliness. I conclude this article with a discussion on how queer of color critique provides a framework for a more inclusive analysis of race, gender, and class in social work studies. Finally, I put forward my perception of the critical implications for social work.
