This text is situated at the juncture of Southern feminisms that pointed to the cover-up of the heterogeneity of Indo-Afro-Latin American women. From the cadences and rhythms of the voices of women of Our America whose knowledge interrupts, disrupts and intervenes, it shows that the problems of white bourgeois feminism of the north are not those of all women since some women escape the feminine fragility that justifies paternalism and micromachismos inside and outside the academy, even within and outside the same class, ethnicity or generation. From the feminisms of the South, this article proposes to enable a dialogue between/with "the others of us” not only to theoretically articulate and politically coalition epistemic knots that put in crisis the model of representation and with it a revision of the point of view but, in parallel, dismantle from the relational ontology that suppose, the epistemological privilege, the epistemic violence and the academic extractivism that locates and positions one over the other in the reproduction of "the others of us".Based on the positions of María Lugones, Rita Segato, Aura Cumes, Lorena Cabnal and Julieta Paredes, it is proposed to make visible the epistemological knots coming from community and indigenous feminisms that enable methodological extensions from which a history of the resistance of Latin American women could be configured in the exteriority of Euro-North centric paradigms.
