Abstract

QUICENO TORO, Natalia  and  VILLAMIZAR GELVES, Adriana Marcela. Women from the Atrato River, Repair Practices and Living Spaces. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2020, vol.56, n.2, pp.111-137.  Epub Aug 05, 2020. ISSN 0486-6525.  https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.702.

In Chocó, the groups Artesanías Guayacán (municipality of Bojayá) and Artesanías Choibá (municipality of Quibdó) gather black women around textile practices. In these spaces women tell their experiences amid the armed conflict and create collective knowledge that allows them to rebuild their lives. In this article we present the ways in which the daily practices of these women support life in a river disputed by various political, economic and armed actors. We also show how their strategies and struggles generated subjectivation processes that changed the places usually assigned to women in the communities and local organizational processes, redefining public and domestic spaces.

Keywords : women from the Atrato river; textile practices; armed conflict; reparations.
