Philomena Essed (Guest Speaker) Nancy Jouwe (Moderator) | Racial Exclusion in and at the Borders of Europe
With the intensifying debates in Europe on refugees, migration and populism, we asked ourselves what happens when we analyze these issues in terms of race. During this seminar, we aimed to investigate the idea that racism is a much more powerful and omnipresent form of exclusion in Europe than is generally assumed. The Migration and Diversity Center invited Gloria Wekker as keynote speaker, guest speaker Philomena Essed and many more presenters to reflect on these issues. Parallel sessions: Nawal Mustafa; Tamara Last; Ildikó Plájás; Amade M’charek; Guno Jones; Dorrie Wilson; Halleh Ghorashi & Leila Kian; Tesseltje de Lange & Lisa Berntsen; Karin de Vries; Thomas Spijkerboer; Giovanni Picker; Artwell Cain |
