The present article is the result of a dissertation research carried out between 2015 and 2016 during the Master's course in Public Policies of the Federal University of Maranhão. The objective of this paper is to recover the context of struggle and resistance of black womem, as well as the theoretical constructions involved in the conception of being a black woman from a relational view of social dynamics once the collective actions of women gave based on another story. It presents an interpretative analysis based on black theoreticians and activists such as Angela Davis (2016), Luiza Bairros (2006), Sueli Carneiro (2006), among others, in order to understand the strategies of resistance and reaffirmation of the identity in the light of those that were coadjuvant of Brazilian historiography.
