- Abstract
This article analyzes the violence and epistemic injustices suffered by trans* women that can be traced in conventional statements of the medical, legal, and media discourses about the murder of trans* women; these statements reinforce each other perpetuating epistemic injustices against trans* women in Colombia. We will use Miranda Fricker's notion of epistemic injustice and the proposals of other contemporary authors such as Moira Pérez, Blas Radi, and Judith Butler and we will show how identity prejudices and the testimonial and hermeneutic injustice to which trans* femininities are exposed, imply marginalizing them through social practices of signification.
