Baseado em entrevistas realizadas com trabalhadoras domésticas sindicalizadas em diversas cidades brasileiras, o artigo estrutura seu argumento a partir do conceito de interseccionalidade, demonstrando como, ao longo dos últimos 80 anos, as organizações políticas dessas trabalhadoras têm se articulado com o movimento classista-sindical, negro e feminista, o que tem sido fundamental para desenvolver uma política de empoderamento e de autocontrole da vida.Editora FGV2013-02-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/9294Revista Estudos Históricos; Vol. 26 No. 52 (2013): Race and History; 471-489Revista Estudos Históricos; v. 26 n. 52 (2013): Raça e História; 471-4892178-14940103-2186reponame:Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/9294/15724Costa, Joaze Bernardinoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-06-14T20:53:23Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/9294Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rehONGhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/oai||biblioteca.digital@fgv.br||eh@fgv.br2178-14940103-2186opendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:56.588433Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
