520 Increasingly we understand that no ethnic community is
monolithic but shows a great degree of diversity in
demographics, class and socio-economic status. This volume
demonstrates this in its focus on the black ageing
community, showing how these diversities have enormous
implications for social services, social programmes and
social policy. In these twelve informative, incisive
essays, the state of America's black aged is assessed and
policies and programmes analyzed. The authors point to the
importance of gearing services to a diverse group of
elderly people. They also highlight how traditional racism
and economic limitations impact on service needs and uses.
Finally, they note the importance of family, church and
other informal support networks in the black community as
a substitute for or supplement to more formally-delivered
services. Written by some of the best known scholars and
professionals in the field of gerontology, the essays in
this book will be required reading for all those
delivering services to minority aged clients.
