Zusammenfassung

Rassismus und Segregation sind Entwicklungen der Moderne: Exportiert aus Europa im Siedlungskolonialismus und dem transatlantischen Sklav*innenhandel, entwickelten die britischen Kolonien ab Mitte des siebzehnten Jahrhunderts ein ökonomisches, soziokulturelles und gesetzliches Rahmenwerk zur Rassifizierung und Hierarchisierung sozialer Gruppen, dessen Echo auch im 21. Jahrhundert zu vernehmen ist. Zugleich erreichte insbesondere die Schwarze Befreiungsbewegung des 20. Jahrhunderts revolutionäre Erfolge gegen Segregation und systematische Diskriminierung, auch, indem Aktivist*innen das Paradoxon zwischen liberal-demokratischen Idealen und rassifizierter Gesellschaftsordnung offen legten.
