PEREZ CARRASCAL, Airlin  e  RICCARDI, Davide. Afro-descendant women face to the fascism of social apartheid in Cartagena de Indiasi hopes for change in an historical discrimination context?. memorias [online]. 2019, n.38, pp.162-185. ISSN 1794-8886.  https://doi.org/10.14482/memor.38.986.112.

This reflective essay, based on results of research, analyzes the main dimensions of socioeconomic exclusion in Cartagena de Indias and how this phenomenon affects women. Dynamics of racial exclusion can be detected in most social fields, ranging from economic (monetary and labor), educational, sanitary, territorial and political. This particular status quo stands in evident contrast to the glamorous Cartagena de Indias, portrayed by advertisers and experienced by tourists. This particular brand of Colombian, Caribbean-apartheid arises from a hegemonic project of social-engineering reproducing historical patterns of racial segregation, regarding especially the afro-descendant women. With the aim of dismantling this perpetual cycle of apartheid and multidimensional exclusion, it is proposed citizens' actions as a tool towards possible social transformation. These alternatives go through the action of a critical and popular pedagogy which works in synergy with the ecology of knowledge of the city and a decolonial activist academy.

Palavras-chave : Inequalities; exclusion; social transformation; Afro-Colombian women.
