People who are dissatisfied with the sex-gender system exist in all areas of life, which is why we need instances to continue building collective knowledge about ourselves. This workshop proposes the construction of a microhistory that allows us to mutate the oppression that we live in a critical-aesthetic and political perspective on power. Finding in the textual production a possibility of invention of critical imaginations to the heteronormative literary canon and its gesture of stimulation of whiteness as a political regime. From an anti-racist and decolonial perspective, this workshop is proposed as a place to be able to write presenting the “I” as a habitable place, from a trans poetics. Here a critical perspective is offered to the conventional ways of producing meaning. This workshop, then, proposes a production process of activist writing for dissident corporalities and the diversity of the dominant sex-gender system -and racialized people-, with the aim of building from the centrality of the body, and its possibilities of narrating, positions and fictions that question the colonial tradition through the power of writing projects that, located from the global south, alter in their drive the north-centrality of the discussions of the LGBTQ+ community in the realities of Abya Yala, reviewing the Afro-descendant and Caribbean worldviews, transvestism and the anal poetics from a contrasexual perspective.<\/p>\n
