First, we discuss how European colonialism still shapes our cartographic perspective of power relations in the world in the Global South and transnational diasporas. Second, we turn tothe ghettoandel barrioas both colonial and futuristic spaces of African American and Latinx communities in the United States and discuss how racism and coloniality meet in urban spaces of the Global North. Third, we move to the Middle East as the ultimate Other of the West with a discussion on racism against Kurds in Turkey and Turkish cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal of the course is to inform the participants about the interaction between structural racism and coloniality in contrasting spatial settings. Participants will explore this relationship to discuss alternative paths of politics that challenge contemporary forms and representations of coloniality.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-79414423 gb-tabs__item\" id=\"gb-tab-item-79414423\">\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-28db6432 gb-headline-text\">Course Outline<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-text\">You can see and download the course syllabus below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-3120ace5\">\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/offuniversity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/racism-coloniality-and-space-syllabus-S21.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:813px\" aria-label=\"racism-coloniality-and-space-syllabus-S21 g\u00f6m\u00fcs\u00fc.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-29769ce4-7f63-438d-b62b-b4cc0c7b1fe8\" href=\"https:\/\/offuniversity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/racism-coloniality-and-space-syllabus-S21.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">racism-coloniality-and-space-syllabus-S21<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-bc3fa32e\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-bc3fa32e\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-233f353f\">\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-e4125b44 gb-headline-text\">Course Details<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-b921c8c1\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-70b4f9b1\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-203abde0\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-203abde0\">\n\n<p style=\"font-size:14px\"><strong>Duration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-7f61003f\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-7f61003f\">\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">16.04.21 &#8211;
