Resumo
In this paper we aim to investigate how black women from
different African diasporas experience and manifest (in the sense of
manifest, denunciation), in their time-place, structural oppressions
related to colonialism, such as racism, sexism, and classicism
(KILOMBA, 2019), breaking with the hegemonic discourse and the colonizing perspective on their bodies, their identities and their
sexuality (COLLINS apud BERTH, 2018). In order to do so, we intend
to analyze the different experiences of these characters, considering
the Brazilian sociocultural context in the short story “Maria”, from the
work Olhos d’Agua (2016), by Conceição Evaristo, and the diasporic
context between Nigeria and the United States in the short story “The
Thing Around Your Neck”, from The Thing Around Your Neck (2017), by
Chimamanda Adichie, observing how female characters are silenced
and how they face this silencing. The choice of these authors and
their works stems from a latent need in the contemporary perspective
of looking at gender issues intersected with race and class without
the need to hierarchize them (RIBEIRO, 2019), as these categories
intersect in the perspective of feminism black, seeking to break with a
split created by an unequal, patriarchal and heterosexist society.
