| Sumario: | García León and García León (2021) propose a study in which they explain what queer theory is about, what its genealogy is and what potential its appropriation would have for the investigation of Latin American reality from a critical, decolonial and intersectional perspective. In particular, they focus on the case analysis of the linguistic-discursive representations around the figure of a disabled trans woman in the Colombian media. In the following review, we retrace the path that leads the authors to reaffirm the need to question ableist and cis-heteronormative representations in order to give voice to the reality of multiple dissident subjectivities, paying special attention to the possibilities that this research opens up by linking two theoretical-methodological perspectives: queer linguistics and critical disability studies. |
