Rachell Sanchez Rivera (Centre of Latin American Studies, Cambridge)
This session will explore the global emergence of colourblind ideology, and how black radicalism has countered transnational political discourses of post-racialism, post-racism, and mixed-ness. We will have two speakers focusing on the Latin American emergence of 'mixed-ness' and how black radicals sought to resist this colourblind racial rule. We will then examine how this Latin American case is evident of more global processes of colourblindness which black radicals have transnationally mobilised against. Materials Costa, A. E. D.
