Redes Interculturales Y Perspectivas Dialógicas en Afroamérica: La Intersección Brasil–colombia

Abstract

The text focuses on the academic research within a decolonial approach in the Brazilian-Colombian intersection. A political-epistemological analysis is included on the proposal "outside house"*, already recognised, when considered the debate about possible/alternative pedagogies with insurgent/invisibilized groups -"outside house" as opposed to the term "inside house" (proposed by the intellectual activist Juan García Salazar and founder of the Afroecuatorian movement). It is starting from the own knowledge "inside house" that we can afford interculturality commencing a dialoge with other knowledge of "outside house" Walsh ( 2007). This paper defends a systemic way of social integration dealt with reciprocity. The "group job" stands out in its reasoning. It goes beyond the boundaries imposed to the university life and to the academic group researchers. The decisive focus of the construction within a decolonial approach (Walsh, 2008) is exposed as a researching wager placed "outside house". This work is based on a dialogue together with Muniz Sodré (2010) as being recognised a circular frequency and rhythm, a momentum or, a search of diversity and other knowledge, other cosmovisions about African Diaspora and commutable knowledge. Thus, it was proposed this study of epistemic internationalization focused on a common reality for individuals of that Diaspora in an Afro-American space/time, a context in which modernity and coloniality are not successive phenomena in time but simultaneous in space.
