This research, conducted in the Quilombos of Baía Formosa and Rasa, in
Armação dos Búzios - RJ, analyses the dynamics of power in situations of
subalternity for quilombola women, addressing the feminism present in their daily
actions, their organisational forms, networks of articulation, and spaces they occupy
as leaders. It seeks to understand their resistance strategies based on situated
knowledge, recognising the complexities of their experiences. The Brazilian reality
faces the persistent impact of structural racism, which originated in the colonial
past, impacting Quilombola communities, especially Quilombola women, one of
the most oppressed categories in Brazilian society. Methodologically, it adopts a
shared approach with women, using personal narratives and life stories to analyse
post-colonial power patterns. It emphasises the role of quilombola women in
political struggles and resistance against historical oppressions. These women face
intersectional complexities of race and gender, resisting invisibility and disputing
narratives. Their strength lies in cultural preservation, the struggle for land and the
quest for autonomy. The research emphasises the need to recognise and value
identities, promoting the deconstruction of hegemonic thinking. This dissertation is
based on a dialogue with decolonial theories and black feminism and contributes to
quilombo and gender studies. The research revealed that quilombola women face
oppression through various strategies. Black and female identity is a crucial point
in the formation of Quilombos, centred on the struggle for territory. Reinforcing the
commitment to valuing their voices, promoting equality and recognising the unique
contributions they offer to Brazil.
