Abstract
In recent years, decolonial thinking has become a field of theoretical reflection and political activism that seeks, on the one hand, to make visible the ways in which the colonial power continues to be reproduced, and, on the other hand, to provide tools to contribute to fissure the conditions of domination inherited from the colonial fact. This article aims to place the categories of race and gender, in the framework of decolonial thought, as fundamental categories to problematize and analyze the ontological dimension of coloniality. In this regard, it draws on authors from the Afro-Caribbean critical thinking tradition, as well as from decolonial feminism. For this, a dialogue with the category of colonial ontological difference is created, as a contribution to continue externalizing the nature of the colonial order of power and to deepen the understanding of how coloniality operates.
