Moviendo el orgullo: movimiento social de los jóvenes nasa y misak en Cali, Colombia

This article aims to show the characterization of the struggles and the ways in which emotions are revealed in the movements of indigenous youth in the city of Cali-Colombia, specifically in the Nasa and Misak communities. This research, which uses qualitative tools, involved the application of in-depth interviews and participant observation of young members of the indigenous movement in the city, all of them migrants. Some of the results show that emotions, which can be considered political, such as shame, indignation, and pride, are devices that support or impede mobilization. These emotions strengthen their various forms of protest, consolidate their epistemological struggles, and preserve the essence of their identity through collectively achieved political processes.
