Abstract
This article seeks to reconstruct the political genealogies of two feminisms in Latin America—indigenous and lesbian feminism—in the context of their dialogue, disagreements, and alliances with liberal feminism. I analyze the ways in which indigenous and lesbian feminists have created their own discourses, constructed in dialogue with dominant feminism, which has involved the appropriation, resignification, and vernacularization of elements of the latter within specific contexts. I also seek to analyze the contributions that indigenous and lesbian feminisms in Latin America have made toward constructing a broader, more complex feminism and highlight the theoretical and political contradictions they have revealed.
