This paper analyses how whiteness appears in feminist movements, in an effort to comprehend the subjectivation and racialization of white women through a dialogue with epistemologies of non-hegemonic feminisms and critical studies of whiteness. Four white feminists were interviewed and their statements were analyzed to consider the ramifications of whiteness in hegemonic feminist contexts, and to understand what occurs when white feminists are willing to dialogue and reflect on their own racial conditions. The discussion of the results reveals the importance of understanding ways of being a woman and feminisms with a distance from an essentialist and universalizing path, recognizing the need for horizontalizing feminist thinking and practices through the intersection of social markers of difference.
