Entre violências e insubmissões: memórias de mulheres de Boa Vista-RR

Abstract

Supported by a writing and research policy that does not separate the personal from the political, I seek to discuss the production of memories based on meeting and listening to women victimized by patriarchal violence. As a methodological tool, I resort to letters sent to Cruviana, an indigenous female entity of the Macuxi ethnic group, telling fragments of stories heard during the period in which I worked at a Specialized Reference Center in Social Assistance - CREAS in Boa Vista-RR. Based on elaborations made, mostly, by feminists, black and decolonial women, I reflect on the concept of patriarchal violence, the use of the concept of intersectionality as an analyzer and the production of collective resistance. I conclude by pointing to the construction of memories as a tactic of resistance and production of possible futures.
