This text differs from researches that advocates an approximation of decolonial theory to queer studies, drawing attention to the geopolitical dynamics of knowledge based on the binomials North / Producer of Theory and South / Consumer of Theory, without questioning the internal relations of knowledge production of queer and, still, a queer knowledge thatclaims itself as decolonial. By taking colonialism as a Eurocentric way of thinking that is structured through colonialities of power, being and knowledge, we aim to demonstrate how the queer movement reproduces this matrix by following a Eurocentric script and building up a new “elite” of thought from the relations of knowledge and power inserted in the field of dispute with the LGBT movement in Brazil.
