Trans-National Re-Imaginings: Race, Empire & Human Rights

Promise Institute for Human Rights' Race and Human Rights Reimagined Series
Professors E. Tendayi Achiume and Aslı Bâli in conversation with Racial Justice Policy Counsel S. Priya Morley to consider two themes:
What a joint CRT-TWAIL approach to international law looks like, and
How a human rights framework can promote racial justice and equality
The report, Trans-National Re-Imaginings, demonstrates what a combined TWAIL-CRT approach uncovers about how race operates within international law, as well as the limits and emancipatory potential of law to dismantle trans-national structures of racial and colonial subordination.
The report and this event are intended to be a resource for students, practitioners, and scholars who are interested in thinking critically about race and human rights. They also provide a basis for future conversations, collaborations, and developing a shared research agenda.
