Abstract

p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-US"The following is an interview with activist, theorist and writer Julieta Paredes in the city of Lanbsp;/spanPaz on January 8, 2011. It addresses issues such as communitarian feminism, lesbianism innbsp;indigenous communities, oppression of the Aymara language by the Spanish, Indigenousnbsp;textualities and the links between Western feminism and communitarian feminism. Paredesnbsp;agreed to this interview on the condition that it had to be a communitarian interview, whichnbsp;included women who are part of the Comunidad Mujeres Creando as well as the Asambleanbsp;Feminista Comunitaria. Because of this, the interview is divided into two parts, the first whichnbsp;portrays a dialogue with the author, and the second, which is a dialogue with Paredes andnbsp;women from those communities./p
