Race and racism have a profound effect on our daily lives and the practice of family therapy. Whether individual or institutional level, overt or covert, intentional or unintentional, there are a variety of ways in which racism can infiltrate the therapeutic process. Before therapists can take steps to address racism effectively within the context of family therapy, it is important to attend to the development of their racial awareness and racial sensitivity. These provide the critical foundation upon which specific skills and strategies associated with effectively identifying and responding to racism in therapy are based. This article defines racial awareness and sensitivity and provides suggestions for enhancing both. In the section that follows, three major ways in which racism can infiltrate the therapeutic process are described. Skills and strategies for addressing each of these in family therapy are presented.
种族和种族主义对我们的日常生活以及家庭治疗实践有着深远影响。无论是在个人层面还是机构层面，无论是公开的还是隐蔽的，有意的还是无意的，种族主义都有多种方式能够渗透到治疗过程中。在治疗师能够在家庭治疗背景下有效应对种族主义之前，关注他们的种族意识和种族敏感性的发展至关重要。这些为与在治疗中有效识别和应对种族主义相关的特定技能和策略提供了关键基础。本文定义了种族意识和敏感性，并提供了增强两者的建议。在接下来的部分中，将描述种族主义渗透到治疗过程中的三种主要方式。还将介绍在家庭治疗中应对每种方式的技能和策略。
