The boundary defining which violence counts as genocide is itself racialized

Evidence

I do not argue here that all racially shaped violence should be deemed to be genocide and treated identically to the Holocaust. Nevertheless, I hope that this essay will help reveal the way that the construction of strict limits of what types of violence can be placed within this frame are - like genocide accusations in general - inextricable from processes of racialization and liable to their political effects. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 251
