Apartheid in the Twenty-first Century: Racial Capitalism and the Struggles in Palestine
Apartheid has become an increasingly important framework for understanding and challenging Israeli rule in Palestine. The Apartheid Convention states apartheid is a crime against humanity. We contend what is missing from this definition of apartheid is an economic and ontological link. Although the current legal definition focuses solely on the political regime, it does not provide a strong basis for critiquing the economic aspects of a settler c…
Tearing Down to Take Up Space: Dismantling White Spaces in the United States
With this concluding article, we build off the scholarship from this two-part special issue on white space to recommend meaningful interventions that seek to challenge and dismantle white spaces at the organizational, institutional, and structural levels of U.S. society.

Securing Racial Borders: A Comparative Study of Settler-Racial Ideology and State Border Violence
The Palestinian 'Great March of Return' in 2018, marked by the Israeli government's brutal attacks on Palestinians who were demonstrating at the Gaza border, nearly coincided with the Trump administration's 'Zero Tolerance' policy in which the unauthorized border crossing of Latinx immigrants came under an ever severe attack.

Within cultural spaces, culture in both material and nonmaterial forms is used in ways that bolster privilege, provide means for people and groups to navigate inequalities, and offers avenues for contesting inequalities. We critically examine some of the past and present ways that culture and inequalities have been studied together.…
