SILVA, Alexandra Lima da. THE SONG OF THE BLACK BIRDS: writing and teaching the dream of freedom for black women. Revista Teias [online]. 2022, vol.23, n.70, pp.27-40.  Epub 23-Feb-2023. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2022.67103.

This article seeks to give visibility to the trajectories of black women who practiced education as a practice of freedom. The focus of the analysis will be the autobiographies written or narrated by women who have experienced the traumatic and painful experience of enslavement. In different ways, the written word, activism and education were understood as an instrument in the struggle for the end of slavery and freedom in the experiences of such women. Based on the understanding that it is necessary to say their names, the text brings together the stories of eight women, namely: Amanda Berry Smith, Lilly Ann Granderson, Mattie Jackson, Annie L. Burton, Susie King Taylor; Fanny Coppin, Anna Julia Cooper, Ida B. Wells. The work points to the importance of knowing the trajectories of black women and warns of the need to understand them from the paradigm of plurality and multiple subjectivities, but without losing the collective and engaged character of these pedagogical and transgressive existences.

Palabras clave : black women; education; trajectories; pedagogical stocks; freedom practices.
