Abstract

Violence against women is a gender issue in which men from the principle that he is the dominant party in the relationship and in this sense, the rate of feminicido in Brazil is the fifth largest in the world, however, when analyzing the thematic more closely, making a cut of race, it is identified that the scenario is even worse when it comes to the black woman. This research is guided by the deductive method, adopting a plurality of bibliographic sources, with the objective of to point out the difference between the rates of violence against black and non-black women. in the country and the importance of the role of the black feminist movement in the fight violence against black women in Brazil. We sought to identify the inheritances left by colonialism in the structuring of Brazilian society, addressing the developments of coloniality and its influence on the present racial hierarchy in the country, in addition to analyzing the reaffirmation of the subordination of the position of women through Brazilian positive law. Further on, there is a contextualization of what are social movements, as well as the analysis of the trajectory of the most in Brazil, the black movement, until the promulgation of the Constitution in 1988 and still an approach of the three great waves of the feminist movement in Brazil. In this sense, it was identified that the black movement consists of struggle and resistance of Afro-descendants in the face of oppression from a racist society that structure from a racial hierarchy, while the feminist movement fights for realization of women's social rights, such as equality and citizenship, aiming to change from a sexist society to a more democratic and egalitarian. However, once oppression affects women white and black people in different ways, it is necessary for the movement to act feminist for the defense in the integrality of the agendas of black women, who in turn, they are not reached by the action of the feminist movement. Finally, the racial inequality present in the rates of violence against black and non-black woman allowing the conclusion that the black woman is doubly victimized, as a woman and as a black woman, highlighting the need for discussion about racial invisibility in issues of violence against women, because it is not just a question of gender, but, also of race, demonstrating the importance of the action of the feminist movement black in the fight against violence against black women in Brazil, since this achieves intersectionality between gender and race
