This theoretical review reflects on the colonial structures and continuity between modern colonialism and global coloniality. In problematizing modern/colonial hegemonic Psychology, we identified some expressions of colonial reproduction, particularly the epistemic silencing of traditional and ancestral peoples. We articulate reflections on black feminisms, ch'ixi epistemology and biointeraction that inspire the counter-colonization, decolonization and de-patriarchalization of Psychology as core positions for other psychologies, without disregarding the risk of recolonization pointed out by Silvia Rivera-Cusicanqui (2010). Hence, we point to the emergence of counter-hegemonic psychologies capable of mobilizing, flourishing, and redefining themselves as an expression of knowledge committed to the peoples of the earth and to life.

The relationship of Afrodiasporic communities with nature is addressed. It poses modern/colonial and capitalist exploitation. It is based on de-colonial theoretical currents, biointeraction, and African philosophies. It follows the methodology of documentary review and qualitative analysis. The conversational axes focus on African cosmogonies as a fabric of cosmic forces; nature as a source of Afrodiasporic ancestral medicine; the link with the territory, and the relationship between nature, culture, and identity. It concludes with an invitation to those psychologies that seek to broaden and to decolonize their interpretive frameworks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We share the reflectionson nature and community producto of the Research Project on the relationship with nature in afro-descendant communities (Colombia-Brazil). It is a descriptive qualitative research, which follows participatory and collaborative methodologies, based on interviews, tours of the territory, daily conversations, musical expressions and participant observation; with counselors, traditional doctors, musicians and dancers of son de negro and bullerengue, from the San Cristóbal community (Bolívar-Colombia). We built three categories on the community's relationship with the nature: she is everything; animals, plants and everyday life; and, singing, dancing and nature. Being with the community makesit posible to produce psychologies that inhabitot her humanities and forms of existence, nonanthropocentric. In a common and daily exchange, capable of poetizing life, singing verses and songs, and listening to the first music, from cosmopoetic and cosmopolitical alliances with the earth.

The article presents the results of the transdisciplinary study of community healing, which problematizes the modern / colonial epistemic silencing knowledge other, in dialogue with critical Latin American perspectives on knowledge. The meeting with Montes de María (Caribbean-Colombia) communities and their practices allowed me to notice the multidimensional curator grupality, as a way to process the emotional experience. This has enabled them, on their own account and with what they have at their disposal, to keep their peasant and afro-indigenous knowledge alive to face of the pains of war. I approached three practices of everyday life, communitary and decolonial: mobilizing as an antibiotic, take care and healing with plants and wakes. It is participatory research, with discursive methodologies of interviews, mapping of knowledge, tours on the territory and documentary review, with qualitative analysis. It invites the dialogue of knowledge and the opening of disciplinary borders, a de-colonial alternative to the euro-northcentred knowledge of the cure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
