Abstract

This article defines decolonial feminist geography from a multiplicity of places. In the field of critical geography there has been more written on decoloniality from outside the global south than within Abya Yala. A variety of critical geographies such as black geographies, indigenous geographies and latinx geographies coincide with an emerging decolonial feminist geographies. From an embodiment of human mobility and translocation, I propose a definition of decolonial feminist geography that deeply questions methodological nationalisms and moves towards an imaginary geographical space such as Abya Yala and Atzlán
