About the Presentation:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

How are Afro women in Ecuador redefining their past, theorizing their present and imagining their future? To what extent are Afro Ecuadorian women\u2019s practices challenging and contesting liberal principles of equality and citizenship, to offer alternative ways of occupying the world and imagining the future? To reflect on these questions, Dr Beatriz Ju\u00e1rez Rodr\u00edguez<\/a> explores, through ethnography, the antiracist and antisexist discourses and practices of members of the National Coordinator of Black Women of Ecuador-CONAMUNE. Following an Afro Latin Feminist perspective, Dr. Ju\u00e1rez Rodr\u00edguez<\/a> will show how Black women are advancing a project of re-existence as political subjects and knowledge producers, as they fight to eradicate the colonial legacies of racial domination, land dispossession, exclusion and marginalisation of Afro-descendants in Ecuador.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
