BLACK QUILOMBOLA WOMEN AND THE ART OF EDUCATING AND NARRATING THEIR STORIES

Abstract

The text addresses the art of educating and narrating black quilombola women, weaving intersections between education, gender and race. It aims to dialogue about the experiences, knowledge, songs, dances and resistances of black women, having as its locus an Afro-descendant territory of the quilombola community of Nova América, located in the mediations of Cametá and Oeiras do Pará, historically invisible by society and public power. A participatory and narrative intervention research was carried out, based on Cultural Studies in Education and Intersectional Black Feminism. The results present the black women-voices of the community in their arts of existing/resisting for an anti-racist and anti-sexist education.
