Brianna Garneau
Brianna Garneau is a Ph.D. Candidate in Socio-Legal Studies at York University with a background in Critical Criminology. Brianna’s research interests are centered on the radiating effect of the carceral power of the state on family members, particularly in the context of migration control. She is interested in the lived experiences of detention and deportation and the ways in which these experiences are shaped by the racially embedded processes of criminalization, securitization, punishment, and state-sanctioned violence.
