In this interview, philosopher Tommy Curry discusses how we distinguish racism as a structural, cultural and historical process from racism merely as an individual bias. Curry explains why the cultural predilection toward colour-blindness is dangerous and explores why the intersectional approach to race is problematic, as it can lead to anachronistic readings of different identities throughout history. He also argues that understanding the ways people are dominated, colonised and exterminated - largely depends on how they eliminate and target their men. Tommy Curry is a philosophy professor at Edinburgh University where he holds a Personal Chair in Africana Philosophy and Black Male studies. His research focusses on Africana Philosophy, Critical Race Theory, Anti-Colonialism, Black Male Studies and Public Health. #TommyCurryTheManNot #CriticalRaceTheoryChallenged #IntersectionalityTheory To discover more talks, debates, interviews and academies with the world's leading speakers visit https://iai.tv/subscribe?utm_source=Y...
