This article builds approximations between Community Social Psychology, narrative (self) biographical research and the decolonial perspective. In this sense, it is recognized that the effects of the Latin colonization still harbor very distinct places of enunciation for subjects marked by the colonial difference / inequality in Brazilian society. What has produced decolonial epistemic-political movements which challenge the project of subject and society built from the colonial logics. Thus, it is important that we can collaborate in the addressing that the colonized subjects, from their narratives, make to the Latin and Brazilian community in search of elaboration, denunciation and combat to the colonial inequalities. It is therefore essential that we retake the historical alliances that allowed the colonized to (re)invent other possible worlds, breaking with the subaltern position, only, as a place of victimization. We must therefore ethically value, not without (self) criticism, the displacements that the decolonial narratives provide for historically legitimized community narratives as the place of production of social transformation.
