Feminist movements have contributed to the development of new forms of knowledge. Tensions and debates characterize the evolution of feminist movements, so that the experiences of Latin American women intersect with other elements of identity, such as race, sexuality, religion, class and geographic localization. With a critical contribution, this research aims to investigate the discussions carried out by Third World feminists and how the relationship between the theories of decolonial and postcolonial study makes it possible to exchange experiences so that cooperation is expressed among women “condemned to silence”. The aim is to develop a study of a qualitative nature through the use of the interpretative and deductive method of approach, following the bibliographical and documental techniques of research procedure. The discursive colonization of Third World women and their struggles takes place not only by the hegemonic feminists of the North, but also through the complicity of the hegemonic feminists of the South, given their own interests, and maintaining the continuity of the matrix of colonial privilege. It is, therefore, about identifying concepts, categories, theories that arise from subaltern experiences, generally produced collectively, which have the possibility, without universalizing, of explaining different realities. Latin American feminism has not yet been decolonized and the internationalism of feminism remains “Euronorcentric”.
