This podcast explores how minority survivors of Intimate Partner Violence (“IPV”) and Domestic Violence (“DV”) have been and continue to be impacted by pandemic, and how their safety has been increasingly compromised as a result of social distancing and isolation necessitated by COVID-19. We explore how, for women of color, in particular, systemic and institutionalized racism has led to high rates of poverty, lower educational attainment, limited job resources, language barriers, and, for those who are undocumented, fear of deportation, which have made it increasingly difficult to find help and support services. Our guests help us to understand how IPV and DV are often underreported in minority communities due to religious beliefs that may legitimize abusive behavior experienced; fear of isolation and alienation; loyalty to immediate and extended family; and distrust of law enforcement, among other factors. Our guests also explain what may impact a survivor’s willingness or ability to report IPV they’ve either experienced or witnessed, and how BIWOC and Latinx are disproportionately and negatively impacted by the pandemic. We also discuss ways in which we, as a community, can identify survivors who may need help and provide meaningful and effective resources to them.
