Dr Jean Beaman: Race and Racism in Postcolonial France (EISPS Global Politics Remix 2021: Decolonial, Black and Queer Perspectives)
Based on past and current ethnographic research in the Parisian metropolitan region, Dr Beaman discussed how racial and ethnic minorities understand and respond to their racialization in a context in which race and ethnicity are not legitimate or acknowledged, and how a suspect citizenship is created. She discussed how racial and ethnic minorities are “citizen outsiders” as evident of France’s “racial project” (Omi and Winant 1994), which marks distinctions outside of explicit state-level categorization. Dr Beaman explored not only how race marks individuals outside of formal categories, but also how people respond to these distinctions in terms of a racism-related issue, here, police violence and brutality against racial and ethnic minorities.
