This collective volume comprises five chapters that were requested, conceived, written, and rewritten during the coronavirus crisis. Two of these explicitly address important aspects of the challenges we face as educators in virtual classrooms and in a situation marked by various personal and shared difficulties. Now, all the chapters that make up Feminist Perspectives on Processes of Cultural Memory in Latin America echo, from different disciplines, themes, and national contexts (Mexico, Argentina, and Chile), something I just mentioned regarding the connection between SARS-CoV-2 and the long history of oppression, dispossession, discrimination, harm, destruction, and death in the region.
The same constitutive structure that Aníbal Quijano has concentrated in his notion of coloniality as a model of domination linked from the beginning of the 16th century to the present day to the capitalist expansion led by different metropolitan powers in
Abya-Yala, what we know today as the Caribbean and, later, other extensive territories on the planet.
