Abstract
In this essay we explore the openings that assemblage/ethnography brings for understanding the complexities of and beyond epistemic injustice. Through remembering the gesture of a grandmother and her migration from the Northern Andes of Peru to the capital city of Lima, we work with the Peruvianism “cholo, cholear, choleando” to illustrate how epistemic injustice infiltrates everyday life. Attempting to sit in between the personal and the cultural, the singular and the historical, the past-present-future, and multiple geographical locations, this essay seeks to move in-between these intertwined and simultaneous occurrences. We resist an ultimate definition for epistemic injustice and instead encourage relating intimately with its contradictory unresolved and always-in-process nature.
