Reviews

At this moment of crisis, Eddie Bruce-Jones offers his masterful examination of Black Germans' multi-faceted engagements with racism and law. In Race in the Shadow of Law: state violence in contemporary Europe, Bruce-Jones deftly weaves together legal analysis in the tradition of CRT with extensive ethnographic data and observant-participant reflection. Using multiple apertures, Race in the Shadow of Law manages to capture a tremendously nuanced and complete picture of the interactions of race and the law as they affect, and are affected by, Black Germans. Towards this end, Bruce-Jones centres the creative, versatile resistance activities of Black Germans who constantly navigate the reach and limits of law as a tool of racial ordering in Germany, and in Europe more broadly. -Maryam S. Griffin, 59(2) Race & Class, Oct 2017, 115-120.
