Abstract
<jats:p>Can history be an act of resistance? This book is forged fromthe intersection of lived experience and critical reflection. Throughout his career as a social leader, teacher, and researcher, the author has woven together a perspective committed to the memory of dispossessed peoples, subaltern subjects, and voices denied by dominant narratives. These pages offer no recipes or formulas, but rather notes that invite us to think of history as a living tool, capable of fueling popular action and social transformation in Latin America. In a context where science and capital often intertwine to sustain structures of dispossession and devastation, this book proposes an insurgent reading of history: one that is not content with describing the past, but questions it from the present and projects it toward possible futures. Through three carefully articulated sessions, the text opens paths for those who, without being specialists, seek to understand the emancipatory potential of history as everyday praxis. More than an academic essay, this work is an invitation to think about the future of our peoples from a perspective of dignity, criticism, and hope. Because narrating history can also be a way of fighting for life.</jats:p>
