Assistant Professor
Skidmore College
Neil Bilotta (he/him) is a faculty member at Skidmore College. His personal, activist, and academic interests are rooted in anti-racist and anti-colonial social work ethical practices and research with refugees and other forcibly displaced communities. More specifically, he is interested in the ways racism, colonialism, and Eurocentric power inform research methodologies and social work interventions with those experiencing refugee status. In collaboration with such communities, he aims to explore how social work can move beyond neoliberal and Eurocentric ideologies in work with forcibly displaced folks. He has partnered with forcibly displaced young people in sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, the United States, and Canada. Furthermore, Bilotta’s work also explores how race and racism underpin most mainstream theoretical and methodological prisms that undergird social work.
