Folclore, raza y racismo en la política cultural e intelectual de Delia Zapata Olivella. El campo político-intelectual Afrocolombiano

Abstract

This article explores the concepts of folklore, race and racism in the intellectual work of Delia Zapata Olivella. It attempts, through a deep interpretation of her work, to show that the constructions of meaning of the author propose a social and cultural description of the racial order in Colombia. Toward this end, it will reflect on the organization of the Afro-Colombian politic-intellectual field in order to then drawing some conclusions about the way in which Delia Zapata conceived of folklore, race and racism in her work.
