The use of the internet and digital tools raised the action of social movements to another level - now strongly engaged in identity agendas - and became the main tool for political mobilization. This dissertation explores the contribution of transnational feminisms from a decolonial perspective to the globalized public space, providing an intersectional critique of modernity and exposing the violence women's body-territories face under imperialism and neoliberalism. The literature review is organized into three thematic axes: feminism, information and communication technologies (ICT), and theories of the Global South. And the survey of the discursive data of the three largest digital movements in Latin America allowed to expose a very specific narrative pouring in innumerable information that can be reflected in the light of Cultural Studies. The dissertation is divided into three chapters. Chapter 1 discusses the evolution of feminist thought, the impact of technology on feminist activism, and the trajectory of feminist movements in Latin America. Chapter 2 explores the relationships between coloniality, gender, and democracy and the role of feminisms in establishing a political agenda for the Feminist Global South. Finally, Chapter 3 analyzes the contribution of information and communication technologies to the process of questioning feminist identity, the popularization of feminism in the Latin American context, and the awakening of political consciousness through the movements #NiUnaMenos, #UnVioladorEnTuCamino, and #EleNão. In conclusion, race, gender and the internet are characters that constitute the postcolonial female subject in the Latin American context, so the entire feminist episteme, taking this constitution into account, must and fight against an original patriarchy in order to protect not only its stocks, but with the intention of one day breaking with this structure, this intention refers to Castells' concept of hope’s networks, with the internet (social networks) being the stage of this subversion. Therefore, if we can draw a panorama of the digital movements in Latin America, it would be that the movements bring a narrative of subversion, of denial, of a collective appropriation of a kind of power that is historically denied to women and the intersections that cross them, which is mostly a didactic cry for a situation that should no longer occur or be accepted, and that left the networks, took to the streets and performed bodies-corpus.
