Dr Nathaniel Tobias Coleman – ‘Africa for the Chinese’:
A Response from Critical Eugenics at UCL –
Thinking Chinese Conference, UCL, 1st April 2015

Dr Nathaniel Tobias Coleman argues for an enrichment of public discourse regarding racial construction within contemporary Britain. He begins by positioning Francis Galton’s controversial legacy, as the founder of UCL’s National Eugenics Department (1904). The argument is developed in three parts, namely: the model minority thesis; Africa for the Chinese (Galton’s letter to The Times, 1873); and white-power in the 21st century.

Speaker Biography:

Heir to enslaved, emancipated, and self-emancipated negros Africans in Jamaica, born and bred in Brum, educated at Oxford (Double First, in Greats), Paris (Entente Cordiale Scholar), and Michigan (MA and PhD, in Philosophy), Nathaniel is a philosopher, working in ethical, moral, social, and political philosophy, with a focus on the gendered and racialised injustice of 'slavery'.

Nathaniel joined UCL in October 2013, as the College's and as the country's first and only Research Associate in the Philosophy of 'Race'. Each year, Nathaniel has taught a senior undergraduate seminar in 'The philosophy of anti-slavery'. Nathaniel's teaching is led by his groundbreaking cross-disciplinary and anti-Eurocentric research for a monograph, accepted by UCL Press, entitled 'Why was negro slavery wrong?'.

About the Conference:

Thinking Chinese was a collaborative project between the UCL History Department, China Centre for Health and Humanity and Ming-Ai (London) Institute. This series, including exhibition, conference, participatory arts project and other events, formed the final exhibition and event of the British Chinese Workforce Heritage oral history project (http://www.britishchineseheritagecentre.org.uk).

The conference took place at UCL on 31st March and 1st April 2015 and brought together academics, heritage professionals and community members to explore British Chinese history and exchange of ideas and technologies as well as thinking about Chineseness, from UCL Eugenics, to modern and historical representations of Chinese in the media, in the arts and by those with a Chinese heritage themselves.
