The same awful stuff happens here in Canada. Beyond the (in)famous and awful situation with the history of residential schools, there's been a decades long (ab)use of the social work & family services sector to demolish indigenous family structures among First Nations in Canada. e.g. https://www.cbc.ca/news/indigenous/first-nations-child-welfare-settlement-payments-1.7608989 https://www.cbc.ca/news/indigenous/first-nations-child-welfa... Or just read anything written in the last couple decades by Cindy Blackstock (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cindy_Blackstock https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cindy_Blackstock) Often it starts with seemingly well meaning social workers dealing with actual real risks of harm to children in communities with high rates of poverty and alcoholism and domestic abuse on account of centuries of problems... but the bureaucracy gets used in terrible and insensitive ways. And in the end children get taken from their parents and put into foster care, ripped away from their culture, language, history.
