Brett St Louis is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Manchester, whose work focuses on sociology, particularly in regard to ethnicity, race, and racism. He obtained his PhD from the University of Southampton in 1999, with a dissertation that examined race and modernity through the lens of C.L.R. James' social theory. His work has been published in a book titled 'Rethinking Race, Politics Poetics: C.L.R. James' Critique of Modernity' by Routledge in 2007. St Louis's current research investigates theoretical analyses related to the de/racialization and antiracism, and he is in the process of completing a book titled 'Postracial Ambition: Eradicating Race, Challenging Racism' with Princeton University Press. This project aims to construct a genealogy of racial eliminativism from the late eighteenth century to the present, providing critiques of epistemological, methodological, ontological, and ethical-political arguments against the concept of race. Additionally, his expertise relates to the UN Sustainable Development Goals 2015, and he is committed to addressing issues of race and social justice through his research.
