Module description
In societies around the world, people have used ideas about racial difference to rationalise the use and abuse of power. But they have also always been challenged, and often defeated, by those they have sought to oppress. In this module, we will explore how ideas about race have influenced societies around the world, and how workers, peasants, radicals, freedom fighters and intellectuals have resisted them. Led by postcolonial and decolonial perspectives, this module investigates the concepts and practices of racism; the theories and tactics of anti-racist and anti-colonial resistance; and the processes behind decolonising places, bodies and minds.
