This study aims to examine the actions and interaction experiences of the Black feminist group with the local government in Belo Horizonte, and thus how these repertoires have influenced the development of public policies focused on the intersectionality of gender and race. Our goal was to present the contributions of Black women in Belo Horizonte in the struggle against sexism and racism in the context of the concepts and theories of social movement studies and Black feminism, specifically the concepts of action repertoires, interaction, and intersectionality. This qualitative and exploratory study includes a literature review on social movements and Black Feminism, as well as a description of the trajectory of Black and Black feminist movements in Brazil and Belo Horizonte. As part of the empirical approach, six Black women from Belo Horizonte were interviewed about their militancy and activism. The analysis revealed that the Black feminist movement in Belo Horizonte used the following repertoires of action and interactions with the state: (a) organizing and participating in the 2015 Black Women's March; (b) acting in municipal councils to promote racial equality and women's rights; and (c) acting in public institutions, particularly in the directorates for the protection and restatement of human rights and the promotion of racial equality and women's rights
