Sounding voices in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo e Florianópolis: Afro-Brazilian women after 1945
Main Article Content
Abstract
The second half of the forties was characterized by massive social events which directly influenced the creation of afro-Brazilian social movement, as well as the foundation of new groups. This new environment was occupied by the presence of relevant afro-Brazilian women. This paper intends to analyze thoughts of three expressive afro-Brazilian women leaders and their demands related to the intersection between gender and race as an attempt to overcome the inequalities which characterized that conjuncture: Maria L. Nascimento from the Congresso Nacional de Mulheres Negras (RJ, 1950); Nair Theodora Araújo from the Associação Cultural do Negro (SP, 1948) and Antonieta de Barros, state representative (Florianópolis,1951).
