Abstract

Victoria Dahbar (kolo) and Eduardo Mattio interview the activist writer Val Flores from a distance. The exchange took place by email between the city of Córdoba and the city of La Plata, Argentina, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. With social confinement as landscape, the conversation revolved around writing as a theoretical and affective practice, the affective disputes in the agendas of sexual dissidence, the emotional pedagogies that intersect and can intersect the CSE (Comprehensive Sexual Education), and the power of disenchantment as a feminist politics of interruption.
