Reviews
"Once again Dorothy Roberts offers us a bold, visionary critique of the contemporary institutional consequences of colonialism and slavery. Her penetrating analysis of the family policing system and its masquerade as child protective services not only persuades us that reforms alone will forever reinforce the system's racist and repressive foundations, it also compels us to imagine new modes of care and frameworks for abolitionist futures." -- Angela Y. Davis, "Roberts's work [is] grimly essential as both prophecy and cautionary tale. ... It's not unusual for an academic to say they want to inspire movements, but to an extent more sweeping and durable than most, Roberts has accomplished that."-- Irin Carmon, New York, "Mind-blowing...a devastating indictment of the [child welfare] system."-- Ibram X. Kendi, The Guardian, "Roberts buttresses her impassioned call for dismantling the child welfare system by skillfully situating it within a larger web of institutions intended to surveil, control, and punish Black Americans. This illuminating and alarming study shatters the "facade of benevolence" surrounding foster care."-- Publishers Weekly, "This compelling narrative delivers data rich analysis that reflects decades of research, observation, and advocacy for Black children and mothers. It exposes the ugly demographics and politics of America's destructive family policing child welfare system...Necessary reading."-- Library Journal
Synopsis
An award-winningscholarexposes thefoundational racismof thechild welfare systemand calls for radical change 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.
