Estórias do passado para um futuro pós-COVID 19: além da normalidade da ‘boa gestão’

Abstract

Drawing upon a historical-decolonial perspective for the majority we interrogate the return of the pos-COVID 19 to normality. Normality is conceptualized in this article as a pandemics governed by the Eurocentric patriarchal capitalism inaugurated in 1492 with the discovery/invasion of Americas and establishment of a life-destruction racialist human order. The normality pandemics is constituted by normality binarisms grounded on the health-disease binarism which effectiveness depends on the vigilant mobilization of the ‘good management’ that destroys and appropriates territories, histories-others, and solidary realities lived by the majority in a global scale. In this article we share a way forward, in search for re-appropriation of spaces and solidary activisms beyond normality binarisms within and outside the predominantly white neoliberal university in transformation. This story of the past contemplates not just violence, greed and victory privileged by the history of normality, but in particular resistance and solidarity daily mobilized by communities, societies and individuals that constitute the majority living a future-present in which the history of normality and histories-others coexist, collide and coalesce.
