What do Indigenous Women do to Feminist Policies?

In this article I reflect on the relationship between indigenous women and feminisms in the current Argentine context. The analysis is focused on Moira Millán -a Mapuche woman, weichafe and Indigenous Women Movement for Good Living referent- and the speeches she delivered in forums, meetings, social media releases and interviews with media and digital magazines. On this empirical basis, I seek to show how these discourses articulate a political practice that challenges the construction of the common within two dimensions: the way in which memory is constructed and the way in which violence against women is made visible. From there on, I point out some of the challenges this poses for feminist policies seeking to hegemonize new emancipatory horizons.
