Kaché’s book explores Black Colombian women’s experiences with (illegal) mining to highlight the intersections of gender, class, race, space, time, and environment amid (un)natural catastrophe on the Pacific Coast of contemporary Colombia. While Black Colombians are displaced, dispossessed of land, and subjected to toxic environments, Black women employ performance (political, spiritual, and cultural) to advocate for human, territorial, and environmental rights.
