Resumo: Ao longo do trabalho são brevemente apontadas algumas das possíveis relações entre estudos vinculados à antropologia da mídia nos Estados Unidos, as críticas feministas pós-coloniais sobre o cinema, a abordagem pós-social e antropológica britânica sobre 'arte' e seus 'objetos', como mediadores de agência e de relações sociais. Neste intento, busca-se descrever também parte da produção cinematográfica do QWOCMAP (Queer Women of Color Media Arts Project) nos Estados Unidos, ressaltando as maneira pelas quais suas/seus produtora/es culturais buscam desenvolver outros modos de representar as " queer women of color " e também valorizar subjetividades. O ensaio analisa e destaca as diferentes possibilidades de um tipo artivismo cinematográfico que visa transformações sociais. Palavras-chaves: micropolíticas e movimentos LGBTQ contemporâneos; mídias, cinema e representação; estudos feministas, de gênero e sexualidades.

The present article analyzes the interactions between two collectives of activists/artists, the Queer Women of Color Media Arts Project (QWOCMAP), situated in the United States, and Mujeres Al Borde, situated in Colombia. By focusing on their interaction and addressing the audiovisual productions of the latter group, I discuss how they seek to create relationships between art, activism, audiovisual production, gender, sexualities, race/ethnicities, aiming to create transnational feminist coalitions. The article touches on the following topics: the creating process
to developed a cinematic training program in partnership; reflects on the possibilities of thinking
about activism and queer theories in Latin American context; and finally examines some of audiovisual productions of Mujeres Al Borde, trying to address what they call as their artivism, neologism that articulates art and activism. The focus here is on the ways in which these collectives are producing networks of transnational collaboration in global geopolitical dissidents’ arenas, promoting social change and means of visual expression for LGBTQ communities, cultivating queer feminist social movements in the global north and global south.

the paper analyzes and discusses the interactions between two collectives of activist artists – the Queer Women of Color Media Arts Project (QWOCMAP), located in the United States, and the Mujeres Al Borde, located in Colombia. The analysis focuses
on the activities and audiovisual productions of Mujeres Al Borde in order to discuss how art, activism and audiovisual productions relate. In addition, by reflecting on the type
of activities carried out by these two collectives, the paper highlights how transnational feminist policies and practices materialize themselves in ‘counter-sexual’ coalitions that
are related to the demands of the communities they organize.

Resumo:
O estudo da homossexualidade e de outras sexualidades não-normativas tem uma longa e distinguível linhagem nas ciências sociais. Este ensaio é uma tentativa de escavar uma parte dessa história, especificamente em termos do estudo etnográfico de gays, lésbicas e de outras populações sexuais minoritárias em áreas metropolitanas da América do Norte, e sugerir algumas das maneiras pelas quais esse conjunto de investigações contribuiu para a articulação de novas teorias e paradigmas da sexualidade do início a meados da década de 1970.
Abstract:
The study of homosexuality and other nonnormative sexualities has a long and distinguished lineage in the social sciences. This essay is an attempt to excavate some of that history, specifically in terms of the ethnographic study of gay, lesbian, and other minority sexual populations in the metropolitan areas of North America, and suggest some of the ways in which that body of work contributed to the articulation of new theories and paradigms of sexuality in the early to mid-1970s.
