MINA ROJAS, Charo; MACHADO, Marilyn; BOTERO MOSQUERA, Patricia  and  ESCOBAR, Arturo. Fights of "good living" by black women from Alto Cauca. Nómadas [online]. 2015, n.43, pp.167-183. ISSN 0121-7550.

This text traces the genealogy of "good living" according to Afro Colombians as a way to track silencing, resistances, types of re-existence and re-emergences in the struggles of people of African descent in Colombia, and how they allow us imagine other forms of life and politics. The text addresses the Women of African Descent Mobilization Towards Life and Ancestral Territories Protection, and retells the living history of the existent links between ancestrality and futurity. It argues that the actions of Afro Colombian Women from Alto Cauca indicate ontological and epistemic-political expressions that coexist with globalization which lead to pluriverse.

Keywords : afrofeminism; neo-extractive capitalism; good living; theories in movement; transitions; pluriverse.
