Riots and the racial borderscape in Britain

In her blog piece Suzanne Hall discusses “Racial Borderscapes” in the context of the abhorrent anti-migrant, anti-Muslim, xenophobic riots across the UK in July and August. She raises questions around how these borders shape an anti-immigration environment, in which discriminatory racial violence occurs. She reflects on her own research collaborations on street economies in cities across the UK, reminding us that it remains pivotal that we invest our energies in engaging with migration as integral to our shared planetary future.
