Details:
Global Raciality expands our understanding of race, space, and place by exploring forms of racism and anti-racist resistance worldwide. The book addresses a wide range of critical topics such as neoliberalism, settler colonialism, race, class, and gender intersectionality, immigrant rights, Islamophobia, and homonationalism. It investigates the dynamic forces propelling anti-racist solidarity and resistance cultures around the globe.

Amidst the Trump years and a rise in nativism globally, this expanded approach highlights the creativity and variety in the fight against racism, showcasing solidarity movements worldwide. The book delves into intersections between race and power structures like colonialism, capitalism, gender, sexuality, religion, and class, offering a robust, comparative analytical approach. By examining both local and global contexts, Global Raciality reframes traditional studies on postcolonial regimes and racial identities.

Review:
"If you haven’t been thinking about racism and empire, start now! In the era of Xi, Modi, Putin, and Trump, power and hatred intersect in new and frightening ways. These studies of situations across the world, ranging from the horror of colonial genocide to the inspiring story of B. R. Ambedkar, provide a rich resource for contemporary scholarship and solidarity work."
– Raewyn Connell, author of Southern Theory
