This article offers an analysis of the concept of racial capitalism as an heuristic and pedagogical tool that can contribute to the development of an anti-racist space inside university. Based on autoethnography, it reports on an experiment around a project of personal productions on racial capitalism by a group of students in an introductory course in international relations at a Belgian university. This research examines the pedagogical and epistemic relevance of teaching racial capitalism approaches in international relations courses. It links the importance of this teaching with the necessary evolution in teaching practices themselves in order to promote an antiracist climate in the classroom and to enable students to understand the power relations of racial capitalism.
