Existe dissidência sexual indígena? Uma leitura decolonial.

Abstract

This research was dedicated to understanding the processes that constituted sexual dissent as an instrument of domination during colonization and post-coloniality, until today. We understand, confirming the initial hypothesis, that the social construction of sexual dissent as perverse, degenerate, unnatural and anti-nature, monstrous, and contrary to christian and western values, was part of the colonial devices, of power, of sexualities and gender, suffering the different injunctions of different forms of colonialities, of power, knowledge, being, and gender, so that this social construction of sexual dissent allowed the domination and exploitation of original populations, and of populations colonized during the colonial process, and extended even today, in post-coloniality. However, theoretical research and testimonies from LGBTIQ²+ indigenous people made us see and understand that this social construction of sexual dissent was and is, always, a process in dispute, translated, betrayed, and devoured in the resistance of the everyday ground day.
