Luta e resistência no processo de conquista da terra: memórias de dona Maria Bobó

Abstract

This research aims to present the life trajectory of Dona Maria Bobó-as she is known common woman, black and leadership of the Todos os Santos / Chupete settlement, as well as her contribution in the organization and mobilization in the process of struggle and conquest for land . In this way, we approach the role of women in social movements and report on the role of Dona Maria Bobó as leader of the settlement. In order for this research to take shape, we used some theoretical references from some authors, and the Oral History as a research methodology, using semi-structured interviews with Dona Maria Bobó, our research object, as the Oral source. However, I look forward to contributing so that this Woman's trajectory has both social and academic visibility. A woman who broke with standards established by society, even if sexist, stood out for the contributions she brought through the struggle for land to the subjects involved in this process.
