This article addresses the role of P'urhépecha women in Cheran, a Mexican geostrategic area where, through an uprising on April 15th 2011, they recovered the territory occupied by organized crime and drug trafficking that had devastated a third of the forests. With this action, P'urhépecha women also recovered the communication system of community sociocultural structures for their anti-systemic autonomic project and their uses and customs. By using ethnographic methods, interviews, oral history, and territory-body mapping for gender-based analysis, this qualitative study aims to understand the relationship between indigenous feminism and communication for the construction of alternative modernities.
