Ativismo crítico pós-colonial: Raça, Genocídio e Reparação

Autores

  • Tereza Ventura

Resumo

Busca-se a relacionar a luta por reparação das comunidades descendentes da política colonial de extermínio racial alemã a perspectiva de justiça pós-colonial de Mbembe.  As comunidades Hereros e Namas reivindicam a restituição de restos humanos de seus ancestrais provenientes do contexto de violência colonial e racial. Ao fazer isso, contestam a destituição de um tempo e de um saber próprio, que relegou ao corpo africano a condição de vítima da opressão racial, objeto de interesse científico e atributo de uma epistemologia eurocêntrica.
