Europe is witnessing a new era of racial denial. After decades of
anti-racialism, post-feminism and the recognition of some queer
lives, the language of equality and diversity suggests that Europe
has not only overcome racism but also sexism and homophobia. Racist
violence in the wake of the 'refugee crisis', Brexit as well as the
force of the extreme Right have been blamed on 'too much diversity'
and 'false tolerance' by European leaders and commentators alike.
The reiteration that racialized Others are a danger to European
liberal gains has become a 'common-sense' claim in the call for the
securitization of the European borders and 'tougher rules' for
immigrants and served as the basis for the call to end
multiculturalism Race in Post-racial Europe offers an analysis of
the intersectional logics of post-racial formations in Europe. With
the increasing significance of gender and sexual norms in debates
around migration, post-racial formations have yet to be studied in
conjunction with the liberal articulation of Europe as
post-feminist and post-homophobic. Whether in the campaign for the
minaret ban in Switzerland, in Dutch gay rights discourses or in
the aftermath of the Cologne events, the New Right has successfully
joined forced with some feminist and LGBT voices in the claim that
women and queers need to be protected from migrants. In Europe,
where race is deeply intertwined with notions of modernity, gender
and sexuality have proven particularly relevant sites of
racialisation.
