“I think we need to challenge north-centric understandings of migration diaspora, and also ethnic diversity, because these north-centric approaches, they are often unable to see others, for example the colonized or racialized diasporas as sources of ideas and concepts. They fail to recognize that racialized diasporas in the global north, through their struggles, have actually conceptually and practically expanded ideas about equality and freedom.”
