This is an exciting book that opens up Deleuze and Guattari's work to a rethinking and recomplexifying of race and what anti-racist struggles entail. Deleuze and Race provides a compelling example of how we can understand race in terms that both respect the lived reality of those living with or under racism, and those that have come to develop alternatives, self-representations and practices that move beyond and undermine racism's continuing force. This collection of essays shows how thinking in terms of becomings, movements of territorialisation and deterritorialisation, lines of flight, forms of biopower and geopower, enables new more dynamic concepts of race to be developed.
