Black Lesbians in Movement

Abstract:

In this paper we explored the militancy of black Brazilian lesbians, who had their life trayectories marked by anger and indignation in the face of established powers, at a historical moment in which social movements began to be grounded in the struggle of black lesbian feminist women, aggregators of the multiple segregations to which they were historically subjected. I hope that this article will serve as a source of reflection for political and academic actions for those who want to anchor themselves in gender studies and feminist knowledges, proposed especially by Black feminism as well as lesbian feminist studies.
