Interview with afro-colombian thinker and critical theorist Betty Ruth Lozano Lerma

The Afro-Colombian intellectual-activist Betty Ruth Lozano Lerma was our interviewee within the framework of a political-philosophical turn in the country of Francia Elena Marquez Mina. With her academic production and emancipatory praxis, she became one of the most important black feminists, following in the footsteps of Mara Viveros Vigoya. In deep Colombia, where we find problems such as the lack of infrastructure and the neglect of the black population, studies and research on the society that most presented internal displacement, of its population, on the resistance of peripheral women catches our attention. The privileged questions in the interview have to do with Political Education, with the position of your country in the African Diaspora, the alternatives for the social emancipation of racialized strata, with the post-colonial critical perspective in its production and with the hardships of the anti-racist struggle.
