Body, scar, memory and identity: theological reflections from the other side

This text is set out from the autobiographical narratives of the author that from the view of the cultural studies and the meeting with the Bible, invites us to read our body from the unconventional categories, challenging us to make theology from the other side. The interpretation of the Bible from women and blackness, on the other hand, is related to the way the author understands her life story, that is why methodologically she start with a biblical text that has to do with the proposed categories, immediately she goes from the story to life and then to an analytical reflection of the chosen category to finally present a theological illumination of that situation. It is not an exegesis in the strict sense of the word, the text is just a pretext to allow us to read life from the other side, that is, from the margins of officially.
