Victims’ Rights and the Challenge of Discrimination

Before we consider how resistance to racism can focus on a politics of identity, we now turn to forms of collective mobilisation to consider their importance in engaging with institutionalised racisms and promoting change. When we consider resistance in Chapter 8, we will emphasise the importance of anti-essentialist approaches to resistance. In this chapter we consider the ways in which an anti-essentialist conceptualisation of identities can impact upon our analysis of the ways in which group-based resistances articulate resistance to racism. In particular, we are interested in the ways in which campaigns and activisms which focus on particular material ends also entail a complex politics of contesting racialised boundaries. As such, we build upon the arguments we have begun developing in Chapters 3 and 6, and lead into our discussion in Chapter 8.
