Dr Kamei Samson studied social theory, social psychology and Indian religions. He is engaged in research at the Indian Institute of Advanced Studies and the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library.

We chose Dr Kamei Samson to partake in the podcast because we found his article, "Anti–Racist Social Work Practice in India", to offer excellent insights into anti-racist social work practice in India. To overcome India’s oppressive social work practices, he recommends that social workers should seek institutionalised solutions instead of focusing on the victim's personality. Unsurprisingly, he commented on social workers emphasising the clinical social work approach instead of dealing with social problems such as racism. This view can be commonly perceived in social work practice globally.
