Margaret Kimberley · Criminal Imperial Nations Deport Their Colonial Victims as Criminals

Citizenship laws in the West are “about reproducing and managing colonially partitioned populations,” said Luke de Noronha, a teacher at the University of Manchester, in the UK, and author of “Deporting Black Britons: Portraits of Deportation to Jamaica.” De Noronha details how Britain labels Black residents as “foreign criminals” and expels them to former colonies. Rejection of imperial citizenship policy “should be central to anti-racist, socialist global politics,” he said.
