he article analyzes the political and intellectual trajectories of two “Amefricans” authors: Lélia Gonzalez de Almeida (Belo Horizonte, 1935 - Río de Janeiro, 1994) and Alicia Camacho Garcés (Buenaventura, 1940 - Buenaventura, 2017), in the decade that their political militancy and textual production is most prolific. The notion of place of enunciation (or da fala) is used to analyze their works’ context and a characteristic corpus of some main politic, intellectual and identity turnarounds experienced by the authors during the decade. Using a contrapuntual approach, the article attempts to emphasize the singularity of their approaches, recognizing their originality and power both within and outside the contemporary black, intersectional, decolonial and anti-racist feminisms.
The discussion intends to contribute into the understanding of the enormous diversity that forms critical thoughts developed by racialized women in Nuestra America.
