Resumo

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a contribuição de Sylvia Wynter para os debates que orientam os estudos de mulheres, sexualidade e gênero no Caribe e a sua repercussão no universo do pensamento social caribenho. O texto enfatiza um dos temas mais caros para os estudos de gênero, sexualidade e mulheres a nível local (Caribe) e transnacional (América Latina, Africa e Europa): a subjetividade racial
ungendered. Para isso, abordo o conceito de terras demoníacas discutido por Sylvia Wynter em “Beyond Miranda’s meanings”. Apresento, ainda, algumas temáticas em voga entre 1980 e 2023 e as proposições de intelectuais desse período que contribuíram e contribuem para o pensamento social caribenho. Por fim, concluo expondo o conceito de terras demoníacas como um conceito poético, metodológico e político capaz de veicular uma epistemologia “radical” negra transnacional.
