This text presents a reading about the presence of women in theEscola Normal de Caetité, Bahia, Brazil (1898-1943) in an effort to break with narratives, in school legislation and curricula, which describe them as submissive teachers, executing tasks prescribed by men. When resuming documents from the Municipal Public Archive, from theEscola Normal de Caetitéand from retired teachers in a historical-discursive path located in gender studies, which involved reading copies of theJornal A Pennaand of photographs, the text problematizes policies of silencing in two temporalities, that of the documents of the period 1898-1943 and that of the archives that organize the narratives of the Normal School in the present time, to bring out experiences of protagonism of women in the teaching profession. This period marks the beginning of teacher training in Caetité and extends till the end of the activities ofJornal A Penna, one of the sources of this study. The educational scenes that the documents in the archives reveal allow us to affirm that the Escola Normal emerged sexist, classist and racist as a symptom of a State constituted in these same nuances. To exist as a woman and as a black woman meant resisting different oppressions. It concludes by arguing that the creative ways of the women of theEscola Normal de Caetitécontributed to resist the silencing policies of the Upper Sertão region of Bahia from the second half of the 20th century and should appear in the local archives as a condition of possibility for textual productions sustaining forms of protagonism marked by gendered and racialized experiences. ; Este texto apresenta uma leitura acerca da presença das mulheres na Escola Normal de Caetité, Bahia- Brasil (1898-1943), em um esforço de romper com narrativas, em legislações e currículos escolares, que as descrevem como professoras submissas, executoras de tarefas prescritas por homens. Ao retomar documentos do Arquivo Público Municipal, da Escola Normal de Caetité e de professoras aposentadas em um percurso histórico-discursivo situado nos estudos de gênero, que envolveu leituras de exemplares doJornal A Pennae de fotografias, o texto problematiza políticas de silenciamento em duas temporalidades, a dos documentos do período 1898-1943 e a dos arquivos que organizam as narrativas da Escola Normal no tempo presente, para fazer aparecer experiências de protagonismo de mulheres no magistério. Tal período marca o início da formação de professores na referida cidade e estende-se até o fim das atividades doJornal A Penna, uma das fontes deste estudo. As cenas educacionais que os documentos dos arquivos fazem aparecer permitem afirmar que a Escola Normal emergiu sexista, classista e racista como sintoma de um Estado constituído nesses mesmos matizes. Existir como mulher e como mulher negra significou resistir às diversas opressões. Conclui-se argumentando que modos criativos das mulheres da Escola Normal de Caetité contribuíram para resistir às políticas de silenciamento do alto sertão da Bahia a partir da segunda metade do século XX e devem aparecer nos acervos dos arquivos locais como condição de possibilidade para produções textuais que sustentem protagonismos marcados por experiências generificadas e racializadas.

pesquisa qualitativa realizada com três mulheres negras vítimas de violência doméstica procurou verificar, por meio de entrevistas, se existiram inscrições da introjeção do ideal de brancura em suas subjetividades e avaliar em que contextos apareceram o racismo e a violência doméstica em suas vidas. A importância desse tipo de estudo está em destacar a existência do mito da democracia racial no Brasil, em sua face perversa, ao demonstrar como o ideal de ego de brancura é veiculado inconscientemente por meio da ideologia como forma de subalternizar o grupo étnico-racial negro ao dominante.

ABSTRACT Introduction: The article presents a historical analysis of the participation of women in Portuguese politics and reveals the positive effects of the introduction of the parity law in 2006. In the 2015 national elections, for the first time one third of the elected the Members of the Portuguese Parliament were women. However, in municipalities there is still a long way to go to reach this level of female political representation. Does the political system limit women's access only to elected positions? Thus, important questions remain: why are women still a minority in local politics? What obstacles do they encounter? And what can be done to improve the situation? Materials and Methods: For this investigation, data were collected on the electronic pages of municipalities and political parties, as well as in the press, to monitor the evolution of the presence of women in Portuguese local government, initially as members of the administrative commissions appointed to manage municipal councils from 1974 to the first elections that took place on December 12, 1976 and then as elected representatives from 1976 to the latest 2017 local elections, comparing this level with central government. Results: The study of this group reveals higher educational levels and more specialized jobs among women than among men, particularly in teaching and management. There is also discussion of partisan membership and it is revealed that left-wing parties invest more in women for local government than do right-wing parties. Discussion: Although four decades have passed since the democratic regime was established, the representation of women in politics is still incipient. We present some examples of policy actions that can encourage the presence of women in local government and increase their role as active citizens.
The gothic is a poetics in constant mutation that, through imagination, thematizes fears, anxieties and the priorities of a historic time. These are the images that involve the female characters in Patrícia Melo's novel, Mulheres empilhadas. They inhabit the locus of a dystopian curse, as victims of crimes, sexual violence and the very erasure of their lives. Merging reality and fiction, Melo brings a dystopian narrative to the realm of the gothic poetics, in which imagination manifests itself by means of discrimination of politics, of religion, and of gender. Such power regimes generate fear and insecurity as means of control, thus, turning societies into dystopian models of aggression. ; A Revolta das Mulheres Sacrificadas O gótico é uma poética em constante mutação que, através da imaginação, explora como temas os medos, as ansiedades, as prioridades de um tempo histórico.

E é o lugar da maldição distópica que elas habitam, vítimas dos crimes, das violências sexuais e do apagamento de suas vidas. Trata-se de uma narrativa distópica, que mescla realidade e ficção e se inscreve no âmbito da poética gótica, explorando questões como discriminações políticas, religiosas e de gênero.

This article presents a critical overview of theories and practices that aim to enhance black women's health focusing on the concept of resilience. Beyond the academic literature, mostly from Pyschology, this text mobilizes different sources about racial relations, including the social movement production. Black women are exposed to human rights deprivation, to the inefficency of governmental programs that should guarantee the right to education and to comprehensive health care, among others. They are also frequently exposed to racism and sexism that affect their health. The concept of "resilience as a process" adopted in this article, a result of both the critical reflection on the literature and of research data, supports the adoption of a psychosocial approach resulting from vulnerabilities analysis integrated to a human rights based framework. The conclusion calls for initiatives that include the practical knowledge of black women and for valuing their collective and transgenerational experiences that has supported the overcome of their exposure to extreme vulnerable contexts, experiences that enhanced their processes of resilience. In this perspective, there is a need to consider not only black women's assistance and individual care but also their different experiences of belongingness, their trajectories, their networks, communities and territories. ; Este artigo apresenta uma revisão crítica de teorias, técnicas e práticas que visam a potencialização da saúde de mulheres negras com foco em concepções sobre resiliência. Além da literatura acadêmica, em especial da psicologia, o texto mobiliza diferentes fontes sobre relações raciais, inclusive a produção do movimento social. Mulheres negras estão expostas à privação de direitos humanos, à ineficiência dos programas de governo na garantia do direito à educação e à saúde integral, entre outros. Estão também expostas à incidência frequente do racismo e do sexismo, que se traduzem em prejuízos à sua saúde. A concepção processual de resiliência adotada neste artigo, que resulta tanto da reflexão crítica sobre a literatura como de resultados de pesquisa apresentados, fortalece a adoção de uma perspectiva psicossocial, resultante da análise das vulnerabilidades integrada ao quadro dos direitos humanos. Conclui-se pela produtividade de iniciativas que incluam a sabedoria prática das mulheres negras e a valorização de experiências coletivas e transgeracionais que as apoiam para superar os contextos de alta vulnerabilidade a que estão expostas, estimulando a potencialização de processos de resiliência. Nessa perspectiva será necessário considerar não apenas o acolhimento das mulheres negras, mas também suas experiências e instâncias de pertencimento, suas trajetórias, suas redes, comunidades e territórios.
