SUMMARY:

I analyze in comparative perspective the political agendas of indigenous women's movements in Brazil and Bolivia. The political agenda translates into the dynamics of prioritizing social problems that, from the collective point of view, stimulate mobilization and articulation aiming at changes. Studying political agendas allow me to understand the dynamics of collective action to overcome the various forms of violence against the bodies-territory of indigenous Brazilian and Bolivian women and their legitimation as political subjects. I used decolonial feminist theories, concepts, and methodologies that emphasize horizontality in the construction of knowledge. The analysis resumes the appropriation of the concepts of body-territory, taming, epistemic emancipation, gender, ethnicity and coloniality by the indigenous intellectual women of these countries. Methodologically, I adopted the comparative perspective and discursive textual analysis (DTA). The research corpus was composed of 20 documentary sources covering the temporal scope from 2017 to 2020 and participant observation of 13 face-to-face and online events held by indigenous women from both countries in 2019 and 2020. The comparison turned to four recurring themes in the analysis of these documentary sources: i) conception of violations from the body-territory conscience; ii) fabric of resistance networks; iii) epistemic emancipation and rewriting of history and iv) taming of public political spaces. Highlighting indigenous women as political subjects in the fight for specific gender demands is recognizing that the defense of the emancipation of territorial-bodies cannot be dissociated from the resistance of land-territories. Collective reflections on the racist and colonial character of history allow them to work on valuing the ancestry of indigenous women of their peoples, an aspect historically silenced. In this rethinking and rewriting of the past, based on the ideals of active memory and large memory, they act together from the practice of taming political spaces, revealing other ways of being, doing and acting in the world that are not from the notorious perspective of white masculinity.
