Professor Paul Apostolidis teaches political theory in the Government Department of the London School of Economics and Political Science, where he specializes in grounded critical theory and Latinx labor and politics.

This talk explores Latino night-shift workers' efforts to grapple with the physical, emotional, and relational adversities that attend their jobs in Amazon's warehouses as revealed through fieldwork in Southern California’s Inland Empire. Highlighting the impact of night labour on working people's social-reproductive capacities, resources, and relationships, the talk derives insights into the mutual entanglement of racial power and capitalist domination by putting these workers' reflections in dialogue with recent critical theory on the subject of 'racial capitalism.'
