Resumo: The aim of this paper is to explore some aspects of the political career of Brenda Santunioni, a transgender woman who was elected as a city councillor in Viçosa (MG) in 2016. Through a case study, I analyze how the local and extra-local connections established throughout Brenda's political career since the 1990s have contributed to her rise as a relevant public figure in the city. I also explore her historical role in activism for sexual rights in the context of Viçosa. This research has been carried out through an ethnography in which, in addition to the intermittent fieldwork begun in 2020, three materials produced/obtained throughout the investigation are taken into account: news and articles in newspapers and magazines (especially Revista Lógica, edited by Brenda from 1996 to 2006); posts and interactions on social networks, and, finally, field diary notes based on observations, fieldwork and personal communications. The research has shown how the local and extra-local connections that permeate Brenda's trajectory link her to a broader context of the struggle for sexual rights and to a continuum made up of "activism", "academia/science" and sectors of the "state".

Por meio de um estudo de caso, analiso como as conexões locais e extra-locais estabelecidas ao longo da trajetória e da carreira política de Brenda, desde os anos 1990, contribuíram para sua ascensão como figura pública relevante na cidade. Exploro, ainda, seu papel histórico no ativismo pelos direitos sexuais no contexto de Viçosa. Essa pesquisa tem sido realizada por meio de uma etnografia em que, para além do trabalho de campo intermitente iniciado em 2020, são levados em conta três materiais produzidos/obtidos ao longo da investigação: notícias e matérias em jornais e revistas (em especial a Revista Lógica, editada por Brenda de 1996 a 2006); postagens e interações em redes sociais, e, por fim, anotações em diário de campo com base em observações, no trabalho de campo e comunicações pessoais. A pesquisa tem demonstrado de que forma as conexões locais e extra-locais que permeiam a trajetória de Brenda a vinculam a um contexto mais amplo da luta por direitos sexuais e a um continuum composto por “ativismo”, “academia/ciência” e setores do “Estado”.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2023-09-25info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/699810.1590/SciELOPreprints.6998porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/6998/13145Copyright (c) 2023 Jinx Vilhashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVilhas, Jinxreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO)instacron:SCI2023-09-19T03:04:31Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/6998Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2023-09-19T03:04:31SciELO Preprints - Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO)false
