Abstract

GARNICA, Diego Fernando Peña. THE VOICE OF AFRO WOMEN AS A MEANS OF PRESERVING THE RAIZAL CULTURAL HERITAGE IN THE ARCHIPELAGO OF SAN ANDRÉS, SANTA CATALINA, AND PROVIDENCIA: APPROACHES FROM ETHNO-EDUCATION, CRITICAL PEDAGOGY, AND POPULAR COMMUNICATION. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.26, e260073.  Epub Oct 28, 2021. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782021260073.

The document offers a historical-cultural tour around the Raizal community of the Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia, and Santa Catalina in the Colombian Caribbean from the development of a descriptive qualitative study from which the documentary and literary review was implemented as a research method. In its sections, the different social and community processes that, from critical perspectives, contribute to the empowerment and formation of the San Andrés ethnic identity thanks to the contribution of Afro women as guarantors of the intangible heritage of their context and their African legacy, are addressed. Consequently, the review of the role of oral storytellers and the approach of their work toward a dialogue with the practices of liberating pedagogy and popular communication, will allow us to recognize the value of a counter-hegemonic struggle waged by generations of marginalized people who claim their rights through the power of the spoken word.

Keywords : popular communication; ethnoeducation; Afro woman; orality; San Andrés.
