This paper looks to the historical imbrication of racial and caste supremacy with citizenship, drawing attention to the inherent coloniality of citizenship in post-imperial Canada and India. We examine the transition from explicit to insidious, unofficial forms of institutionalized racial/caste supremacy. Explicit forms of supremacy have established and normalized forms of hierarchy that ascribe tiers of citizenship, even after legal guarantees of supremacy have been removed. We seek to examine the coloniality of modern citizenship to (a) better historicize the ongoing colonial violence of citizenship within post-imperial places and (b) penetrate the shield of fragility to help citizens come to terms with their unearned privileges
