Student Spring: A Feminist Coexistence

Abstract:

Based on interviews, observation, and analysis of (auto)biographical narratives of students who occupied schools in Curitiba/Paraná and in its metropolitan area in 2016, this article aims to analyze displacements and the bases for coexistence among students during school occupations. It focuses also on a possible fourth wave of feminism, marked by the participation of young girls and women both in virtual spaces and in educational environments. The results show that school occupations were a movement aligned with a coexistence whose set of actions intersects with feminist practices. This event represented a form of resistance, showing the political and collective power of girls/women, and LGBTI+ people, during the period they occupied their schools.

Keywords:
