Antiracist movements are political struggles for self-determination and full political participation

Evidence

Second, like racisms, antiracism in each of these instances is a name for a range of conceptions, activities and practices, coalitions and organizations. As antiracist they share the commitment to undo racism. But it should be self-evident from the above account that what might be meant by the designation, what means might properly be employed, and who might be legitimate contenders as well as objects of critique and action differ on a more or less case-by-case basis. For all this range, however, these antiracist social movements were political struggles, in Dipesh Chakrabarty’s sense of the term, struggles over the terms of self-representation and selfdetermination, for “full participation in the political life of the nation.” — David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race, 112
