Ted Rutland is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography, Planning, and Environment at Concordia University. His research examines how racism and racial categories are reflected in modern forms of state policy and power, particularly at the urban/local scale. Concretely, his work has examined the history of urban planning and racism in the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia, as well as the history of policing and black confinement in Montreal, Quebec.
