Regions are constituted in part by their specific racial arrangements

Evidence

What, then, has race meant in and to regions with different, if related, histories of racial thinking, expression, imposition, and exclusion? How have Europe, Latin America, and South Africa, respectively, been shaped by racial arrangements – been shaped, in part, as those specific regions? And what today do those regions, and the societies constituting them, contribute (especially in the popular imaginary) to the interactive extensions of racial meanings and to thinking critically about racial structuration, racist exclusions, and social markings, social humiliation and violence? — David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race, 810
