Module 9: Said’s critique of the concept of Orientalism have been foundational to shaping contemporary discussions of power and representation of postcolonial identities. Offer a quote from the text that you find most powerful in providing an analytical framework for a racial or racialized postcolonial relationship of domination or subjugation that continues in 2024 (hint: think about dynamics not only for the people of formerly colonized lands but also their treatment in the lands of former colonizers).
Module 10: Knowing what we know about colonialism, the social construction of race and the ongoing exploitation of the Global Majority (otherwise known as “Global South,” “Developing World,” etc.), how do we discuss the entanglement of race and politics in the legal (national and international) frameworks confronting the data and stories on migration, borders and belonging?
