This article shows the work of women who sing to dead, alabaoras, in Pogue, town of the municipality of Bojayá. According to the Afro spiritual repertoires, their creative and political practices denounce the damage caused by the war in order to heal their wounds and to process their losses. Las musas de Pogue propose new political languages as scenarios for the dialogue on peace in their territories. Through chants, they express the fears and uncertainties about the future of the Afro Colombian communities. This article is the result of a participatory research exercise with an ethnographic approach in which female singers, their daughters, and relatives constructed visual and radio narratives
