p(B)ajubá e a proteção de pessoas trans e travestis — Montreal Monochrome XI
In this conversation, Daniela Andrade and Fern revisit the role of p(B)ajubá in shaping LGBTQIAPN+ identities in Brazil while reflecting on the importance of preserving and protecting its travesti legacy. Centering trans and travesti knowledge, they discuss the ethics of collaboration, cultural transmission, and inclusion. As an Afro-trans linguistic heritage, p(B)ajubá offers a perspective that challenges colonial ways of producing meaning, inviting audiences to consider what forms of knowledge emerge from communities historically pushed to the margins.
