- Description
- Emergent in Latin America are vibrant articulation of feminist/ised praxis which offer gifts that can contribute towards a re-imagining and enfleshing of revolutionary politics that overcomes the (re)production of masculinist and White subjectivities, epistemologies and relationships in our struggles for collective self-liberation. In this chapter, I offer a decolonising feminist/feminised co-mapping of some of these strands of feminised/ist emancipatory praxis. I situate this against and beyond the (neo)liberal White bourgeois feminism of international financial institutions and, instead, dialogue with decolonial, Black and Indigenous popular feminisms and feminist/ised subjects emergent in the Valle de Cauca, Colombia that often remain under-visibilised or invisibilised in analysis of contemporary feminism and/or revolutionary theory/practice. For Black/decolonial/Indigenous feminisms, theory is always placed and embodied. It is thus my hope that in sharing this initial co-mapping of the practices of this concrete embodiment of feminist/ised decolonising transformation that this piece can contribute to our dialogues of revolutionary emergent and embodied theories between feminised and racialized subjects in struggles for territories, bodies, knowledges and worlds beyond patriarchal capitalist-coloniality. I also offer this chapter as an invitation to (un)learn taken for granted assumptions about emancipatory theory and politics to those for whom these traditions and lineages of enfleshed philosophies are other.
