Coreografías de la desobediencia: lo crip y lo animal en clave latinoamericana

This article addresses the intersection of disability and animality as a field of philosophical and political problematization. It is framed within anti-speciesist, anti-ableist, and decolonial perspectives that challenge the conditions of possibility of the "human" in colonial modernity. Drawing on our embodied experiences—queer, neurodivergent, arthritic, OCD, and tired bodies—in dialogue with authors such as Sunaura Taylor, Alison Kafer, Robert McRuer, val flores, and Christine Greiner, we reconstruct the modern-colonial genealogies responsible for animalizing and disabling bodies in order to legitimize ontological hierarchies grounded on productivity, autonomy, and rationality. We argue that ableism and speciesism are not parallel but entangled forms of oppression, sustained by colonial devices of exhibition and by economies actively producing disabled bodies—both human and nonhuman—in order to sustain capital. In response, we put forward the crip or disca as animal cohabitation: a way of life that disrupts the norm and opens dislocated, slow, and relational temporalities. Finally, we propose forming "wild alliances" as multispecies care and resistance practices that, grounded on vulnerability, opt out of domestication and instead build habitable worlds beyond the human norm.
