An Overview of Black-Male-Female Relationships, Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome, and Intimate Partner Violence: Implications for Culturally Specific Social Work Interventions
Black male-female relationships is not an issue that garnishes great attention among social scientists and community leaders focused on improving the plight of Black people. This is a critical omission as the dissolution of and absence of healthy Black male-female relationships is a co-morbid factor for social and economic issues that disadvantages Black families and communities (Blackman et al., 2005). A particularly concerning aspect of Black male-female relationships is the disproportionately high rates of intimate partner violence with 45% of Black women and 40% of Black men experiencing contact sexual violence, physical violence and/or stalking by an intimate partner in their lifetime (Smith et al., 2017). While disunity between Black males and females are often discussed, the root causes are often ignored. The purpose of this presentation is to introduce social workers to the underlying structural factors that affect Black male-female relationships. This workshop will 1) utilize the framework of Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome (PTSS; DeGruy, 2005) to explain the impact of slavery and current oppression on Black male-female relationships and 2) illustrate how these factors may perpetuate intimate partner violence in Black male-female relationships. This presentation has implications for the creation of culturally responsive interventions. Objectives: 1) Introduce the framework of Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome 2) Apply the framework of Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome to Black male-female relationships 3) Discuss the prevalence of intimate partner violence in Black male-female relationships 4) Highlight causes and potential solutions to strengthen Black male-female relationships identified by Black residents of high risk-intimate partner violence communities
