Cuerpos que arden, afectos que florecen: acuerpamiento en el Bloque Negro Feminista “Mariposas Negras”

Abstract

This article explores the experience of young women who are part of the Feminist Black Bloc embodying the “Mariposas Negras” feminist collective. It analyzes how care and affection are configured as embodied political dimensions in their collective action. Through a qualitative methodology, the practices of care, anonymity, and solidarity that shape an insurgent collective identity are examined. The research recognizes the body as political territory and affective ties as the sustenance of the struggle. It proposes an embodied reading that articulates rage, love, and tenderness as transformative forces of resistance.
