Excerpt: What is the story of race and settler colonialism in the legal landscape of present-day Canada? How do we tell these legal histories of settler-state racial violence in the context of the ongoing realities of Indigenous dispossession, anti-Black racism, and the experiences of civil death by migrants and displaced people? What does it mean to commit to this inquiry at a time when human rights discourse and projects of reparative justice corroborate with the legacies of white supremacy and racial colonial violence inherent in juridicopolitical mechanisms of liberal rights regimes? In this chapter, we maintain that socio-legal scholars in Canada need to do much more to address the historical, structural, and affective significance of race, racism, and settler colonialism in our socio-legal analyses and imaginations.
