SUMMARY:Whatever happened to the black working class? Racism\, legitimate g
 rievance and social death
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 4 February 11:00-12:30\nREGISTER HERE\nUniversity of Su
 ssex Campus : Global Studies Resource Centre\, Arts C / Zoom Webinar\nSpea
 ker: Professor Paul Warmington\nPart of the series: CIE Research Café\n"W
 hat\, to paraphrase WEB Dubois\, does it mean to be a legitimate grievance
 ? The current English century has seen a resurgence of Powellite ethno-nat
 ionalism\, wherein politicians\, policy-makers and news media have constru
 cted an ‘authentic white working-class’ in ways that necessitate the p
 henomenological disappearance of Black and Brown working-class people. Thi
 s paper examines the discursive positioning of people of colour\, not only
  as outside of (working) class identity\, but often as the cause of white 
 working class loss\, as a legitimate (racial) grievance. In the aftermath 
 of the riots of summer 2024\, the paper explores contemporary rearticulati
 ons of discourses of race and class\, the transatlantic discourse of the 
 ‘left behind’ and the ‘social death’ implicit in disqualification 
 from class identity."
