Cosmoenchantment, Female ancestral knowledge, Be-such, Sensitive listeningAbstract
This article intends to discuss briefly the female ancestral knowledge in African philosophies. For this, it presents a critique of the way women are presented in Western philosophical thought and their absence in the construction of contemporary African philosophy thinking, proposing the decolonization of knowledge and all senses. Thus, we privilege the voices of black African women and the diaspora, speaking from the enunci(actions) of the cosmoenchantment, the being-such that inhabits us, the sensitive listening and the feminine that weaves us from ancestral memories.
