Feminist organizing and theorizing from the Americas have provided some of the most innovative, visible, and all-encompassing spaces of resistance against sexism and sexualised violence, misogyny, racism, homo- and transphobia, coloniality, extractivism, climate change, and neoliberal capitalist exploitation. Current feminist movements address different axes of oppression and thereby represent, practice, and theorize a truly »intersectional« politics. The contributors bring together a wide variety of perspectives, ranging from Black and decolonial feminist voices, LGBTQI/queer perspectives to ecofeminist approaches and indigenous women's mobilizations to inspire future feminist practices and inform social and cohabitation projects.

Lívia De Souza Lima is a PhD candidate in InterAmerican Studies at Universität Bielefeld and a fellow at the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation. Her main research focus lies in the intersection of gender and political representation, in which she works with Black and decolonial feminist perspectives.

Edith Otero Quezada is a doctoral candidate in InterAmerican Studies and a member of the research training group »Experiencing Gender« at the Interdisciplinary Center for Gender Studies at Universität Bielefeld. Her research interests are postcolonial and decolonial feminist epistemologies, political subjectivity, (post)memory, guerrillas, and social movements, especially in Latin America and Central America.

Julia Roth is a professor of American studies with a focus on gender studies and director of the Center for InterAmerican Studies (CIAS) at Universität Bielefeld, where she is also PI of the graduate school »Experiencing Gender«. Her research interests are gender approaches, intersectionality theorising, gender and citizenship, right-wing populism and gender, migrant knowledges and new feminist movements.
