| Description: | Select Guide Rating Chapters in this book offer critically valuable scholarship grounded in anti-racist perspectives illuminating the historical and contemporary racial mechanisms within global anti-trafficking discourses and practices. Topics converge and intersect with gender, citizenship, sexuality, class formations, and the global political economy. Global efforts to combat human trafficking are ubiquitous and reference particular ideas about unfreedoms, suffering, and rescue. The discourse has, however, a distinct racialized legacy that is lodged specifically in fears about "white slavery," women in prostitution and migration, and the defilement of white womanhood by the criminal and racialized Other. White Supremacy, Racism and the Coloniality of Anti-Trafficking centers the legacies of race and racism in contemporary anti-trafficking work and examines them in greater detail. |
