Sharon Marie Chester
Memoirs of an Accidental Abolitionist chronicles the life and career of Sharon Marie Chester, a social worker whose journey toward anti-racism became deeply personal, political, and professional. Drawing from decades of firsthand experience in the field, Chester reflects on how systemic racism shaped her identity, her practice, and her fight for justice within and beyond the profession. This deeply personal narrative explores the intersections of race, trauma, social work, and healing while challenging long-standing structures that perpetuate inequality.
Told with vulnerability, intellect, and passion, this memoir is a guide for aspiring change-makers, a reckoning for systems in denial, and an affirmation for those who have lived the realities of racism in America. Through historical references, policy critiques, and lived stories, the book becomes a call to action for anti-racist transformation in social work and society at large.
