| dc.description.notes | Presents the methodology and results of a US study designed to investigate the concept of ‘White privilege’ as it operates in the area of women’s services. Forty-four executive directors of battered women’s refuges in the states of Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi were interviewed to ascertain how White privilege affects service to non-White women and what lessons may be learned to help improve these services. A semi-structured telephone interview was conducted and information analysed both quantitatively and qualitatively. Three themes emerged from the data: that directors reported operating with the idea that service should be the same for everyone as violence affects all women equally; that, in fact, they saw non-White women as different and, acting on their stereotypical view, disadvantaged these clients; that directors were reluctant to change to meet the needs of a diverse community. Summarises the implications this research has on programming and policy and concludes that White privilege must be acknowledged and dealt with if social justice is to be extended to the whole of society. | en |
