Abstract

Abstract:This article offers a specific methodology: an autoethnography of decolonial feminist witnessing to invite the reader into the world of the praxis of navigating institutional spaces recognizing where these entrances and departures are imperfect, messy, violent, and filled with resistance. The author offers examples of coalitional work through local and transnational experiences that were fostered through survivance in colonial systems. Recognizing how multiple institutions shape people's lives, this article highlights lived exemplars where the author traverses academic and legal institutions. The author reflects on witnessing in the courts as a legal expert witness. The role of narrative and witnessing is central to a decolonial feminist praxis; therefore, the author reflects on a state-wide consortium to end violence, where opportunities to narrate stories were facilitated in a performance. To conclude, the author reflects the self-in-coalition as a response to the material violence of coloniality in institutions.

联合中的自我的多重性:通过自我民族志的非殖民化女权主义见证
摘要:本文提供了一种具体的方法:一种非殖民化女权主义见证的自我民族志,邀请读者进入导航制度空间的实践世界,认识到这些进入和离开是不完美的,混乱的,暴力的,充满阻力的。作者提供了通过在殖民体系中生存而培养的当地和跨国经验进行联合工作的例子。认识到多种制度如何塑造人们的生活,本文重点介绍了作者穿越学术和法律制度的生活范例。笔者对作为法律鉴定人出庭作证进行了思考。叙事和见证的作用是去殖民主义女权主义实践的核心;因此,作者反思了一个全国性的结束暴力的联盟,在这个联盟中,表演为讲述故事提供了机会。总而言之,作者反映了自我联盟是对殖民主义在机构中的物质暴力的回应。
