Intersected domination: Racisms and gender violences in Colombian higher education

Abstract

The article takes up the preliminary results made in a research called “Racism in Latin American Universities”, carried out in Argentina and Colombia since 2018. It addresses the debate from the trajectories of four Afro-descendant women, who graduated from teacher training programs during the first decades of this century. It reconstructs their path through the tuition process, as well as their relationship with the feminist, anti-racist and gender struggles that take place in universities. It analyzes how these trajectories involve experiences of different sorts of violence linked to gender issues and feminist activism.
