Brianna Garneau
Brianna Garneau holds a PhD in Socio-Legal Studies from York University. Her SSHRC-funded dissertation examines the discursive, ideological, and material expansion of carceral migration governance, focusing on how the family, as a microcosm of racial governance, facilitates its expansion. Her research is broadly concerned with the lived and embodied experiences of carceral systems and the ways in which these experiences are shaped by the racially embedded processes of criminalization, punishment, and state-sanctioned violence.
