This week on Bridging Philly: child welfare agencies here and across the country were established to protect children. But after decades of research, our guest Dorothy E. Roberts tells the stories of Black children who are more likely to be torn from their families and placed in foster care than their white counterparts. The University of Pennsylvania professor of sociology and law believes the current welfare system should be abolished. Then, Motown Philly's Boyz II Men reflect on how today's kids can stay away from the streets of crime by listening to the people who came up before them.

PEN America Prison and Justice Writing Postgraduate Fellow Sophia Ramirez interviews legal scholar, sociologist, and social justice advocate Dorothy E. Roberts about her new book, Torn Apart: How the Child Welfare System Destroys Black Families—and How Abolition Can Build a Safer World, which peels back the benevolent façade of the child welfare system, revealing the cruel and oppressive structures within. Roberts calls for the abolition of the system, advocating for community-based responses. Ramirez and Roberts discuss the child welfare system's racist origins, carceral logic, and the destruction it deals to Black families and minority communities.

Dorothy Roberts is the George A. Weiss University Professor of Law and Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania. A contributor to the 1619 Project, she is the author of four books, including Killing the Black Body. Her other books include Fatal Invention: How Science, Politics, and Big Business Re-create Race in the Twenty-first Century (New Press, 2011);  and Shattered Bonds: The Color of Child Welfare (Basic Books, 2002),. Many believe the child welfare system protects children from abuse. But as Torn Apart uncovers, this system is designed to punish Black families. Drawing on decades of research, legal scholar and sociologist Dorothy Roberts reveals that the child welfare system is better understood as a “family policing system” that collaborates with law enforcement and prisons to oppress Black communities. Child protection investigations ensnare a majority of Black children, putting their families under intense state surveillance and regulation. Black children are disproportionately likely to be torn from their families and placed in foster care, driving many to juvenile detention and imprisonment.    The only way to stop the destruction caused by family policing, Torn Apart argues, is to abolish the child welfare system and liberate Black communities.

Ohio RCRC Faith Organizers Kelley Fox and Terry Williams talk Juneteenth, the Fourth of July, and why holidays that come without real social change are anything but holy. Kelley and Terry explore the roots of interdependence, touching on Critical Race Theory, performative gestures that come in place of liberation, and what true freedom looks like in a nation still longing for full reproductive health, rights, and justice.

Acclaimed scholar of race, gender and law, Dorothy E. Roberts discusses the harm and health inequities produced by structural racism, with race correction in medicine disqualifying black people from specialised care, and evident collaboration of doctors and lawyers in promoting juridical ideas about race. Addressing a violent policing system that can be traced back to slave patrols and black codes, Dorothy also explains the need for abolition of the entire policing apparatus in the US.This conversation was recorded on 28th August 2020Speaker: Dorothy E.

Northwestern University Kirkland & Ellis Professor of Law, Dorothy E. Roberts makes her third visit to The Context of White Supremacy. Professor Roberts authored Killing the Black Body: Race, Reproduction, and The Meaning of Liberty (1997) & Shattered Bonds: The Color of Child Welfare (2004). We'll examine her exemplary new publication, Fatal Invention: How Science, Politics, and Big Business Re-create Race in the Twenty-first Century (2011). Professor Roberts asserts that the concept of Race is frequently disguised as a biological certainty. Nothing could be further from the truth. We'll discuss how the Human Genome Project, and ethno-specific medicine continues the long tradition of reifying the false concept of Race. RACE = RACISM = WHITE SUPREMACY.
