BETWEEN VIOLENCE AND INSUBMISSION: MEMORIES OF WOMEN FROM BOA VISTA-RR
meeting; listening; memory; women; patriarchal violence.
Supported by a writing and research policy that does not separate the personal from the political, I seek to discuss the production of memories based on meeting and listening to women victimized by patriarchal violence. As a methodological tool, I resort to letters sent to Cruviana, an indigenous female entity of the Macuxi ethnic group, telling fragments of stories heard during the period in which I worked at a Specialized Reference Center in Social Assistance - CREAS in Boa Vista-RR. Based on elaborations made, mostly, by feminists, black and decolonial women, I reflect on the concept of patriarchal violence, the use of the concept of intersectionality as an analyzer and the production of collective resistance. I conclude by pointing to the construction of memories as a tactic of
resistance and production of possible futures.
