Abstract

MIRANDA, Ellen Rodrigues da Silva  and  RODRIGUES, Doriedson do Socorro. “Other” female collectives: Struggles and Resistances that form quilombola women in the Amazon. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.67, pp.1862-1886.  Epub Dec 31, 2020. ISSN 1981-416X.  https://doi.org/10.7213/1981-416x.20.067.ds16.

In this article, we analyze the relationship between labor and training processes of quilombola women when they resist the actions of Capital, in the context of the Tambaí-Açu Quilombola Community - Mocajuba / PA, Amazon. Therefore, in the light of historical dialectical materialism, we considered semi-structured interviews with four women and three men. Thus, when doing content analysis, we understand that monocultures introduced in the Amazon, such as black pepper, have transformed the labor-culture of traditional communities, based on the interests of capital. However, contradictorily, quilombola women, in the work of the joint efforts, have been resistant to market actions. Our analyzes also show that the female collectives of quilombola women are inserted in the field of the debate of gender, race, patriarchy and class, because, in their ways, their struggles and resistance, in the daily life of quilombos, constitute themselves as “other” forms of struggles against capital and are part of the training processes of social classes, revealing themselves as social struggles distinct from feminine collective “others”, defending, in the daily lives of their communities, the right to have the right, to land, to labor , education, health; finally, they fight for the right to produce life, from a historical perspective that takes the interests of the working class as a quilombola social being, but with scope for life in common, both for men and women.

Keywords : Quilombola women; Resistance-fights; Capitalism; Formation.
