The myth of Race and the politics of in-groups and Out-Groups

This lecture takes a critical look at the concept of race, examining its origins as a social construct rather than a biological fact.

Participants will explore how the idea of race has been used to justify systems of oppression and exclusion, including racism, classism, and xenophobia.

By analyzing historical contexts and modern examples, this lecture reveals how “in-groups” and “out-groups” are formed, and how these divisions perpetuate inequality and prejudice.

Through an interdisciplinary approach, we’ll investigate the intersections of race with other forms of social stratification, such as economic class and hidden caste systems, providing a comprehensive understanding of how othering shapes society.

This is an eye-opening lecture for anyone seeking to understand the deep-rooted implications of race and identity politics.
