description In this article we present some experiences of community and collective political participation of Afro-Colombian black women survivors of the armed conflict in Colombia, who are part of organizational processes in Bogotá. Their participation contributes to the re-existence of Afro-descendant communities resettled in Bogotá. At the same time, this resettlement - as a result of the armed conflict in their original territories - establish a new diaspora for this population. We consider care work extended to the community, political empowerment, and some cultural practices, as the pillars from which women position themselves as political subjects, dismantle racial and sexist stereotypes that weigh on them and transform conditions of personal inequality and collectively. We recognize them, as Jesus García said, as “pedagogas cimarronas”, who, as active subjects of their communities, they reappropriate the territory in the city, make visible memories and ways of life typical of the Afro-descendant population from the Colombian Pacific, and make significant contributions the Afro-Colombian movement, of women and of victims of the armed conflict in Bogotá. From a situated perspective of their experiences, we are interested in recovering their stories about the experiences of the armed conflict in their regions, but mainly about their trajectories of participation in organizational processes in Bogotá.
