"Knowledge and Compassion: Structural Racism and the Failures of Liberalism"
Abstract
In Europe and the U.S.A., the dominant political discourse is largely based on the ideals of post-Enlightenment liberalism – equality, liberty, autonomy, individuality, respect, dignity, rights, due process, democracy – which are said to be universally applicable to all human beings, regardless of race, s*x, religious background, s*xual orientation, etc. The theory of liberal multiculturalism stipulates that cultural differences should be recognized and respected, and this framework is also used to combat racism, as if racism is a problem of inequality and disrespect among different racialized groups. In this presentation, I shall show how such a framework is inadequate in addressing the fundamental problems of racism. The ontology of individuality and respect may minimally address the problems of personal racism, but its framework fails to capture the problems of historical and structural racism. I will use the example of the U.S. to discuss the facts and nature of structural racism, and I articulate an alternative theoretical framework from critical race theory (and some postcolonial theories) to better address the problem of structural racism, not only in the U.S. but also elsewhere.
