In this conversation, Arun Kundnani discusses the inseparable relationship between racism and capitalism. He distinguishes between liberal and radical anti-racist traditions and argues that addressing systemic racism requires understanding how capitalist societies depend on racial divisions.
Discussion points:
There are two anti-racist traditions: liberal and radical, with liberal anti-racism focusing on individual prejudices and biases, while radical anti-racism sees racism as a social structure.
Racism is embedded in capitalist societies, where resources are distributed unequally based on race, leading to disparities within and between countries.
Border policies, mass incarceration, and aggressive policing serve the interests of capitalism, maintaining racial divisions of labour and managing surplus populations.
To combat racism effectively, a shift towards understanding and dismantling the structural racism within capitalist systems is crucial.
Liberal approaches that address individual biases have limitations in addressing systemic racism.
