Resumo: This article aims to investigate the interface between gender, color/race and public health in Brazil, focusing on the importance of reproductive health for the formation of a black feminism in the country, between the years 1975 to 1993. The black feminism was shaped from the relations between black activists and feminist and black rights movements. The topic of reproductive health, under a racial perspective, gained importance in the 1980’s from reports of surgical sterilization among black women. The article investigates the context in which such allegations have emerged and their relevance to the formation of an identity among black activists.

O feminismo negro se formou a partir das relações entre as militantes negras e os movimentos feminista e negro. O tema da saúde reprodutiva, com recorte racial, adquiriu importância na década de 1980, a partir de denúncias de esterilizações cirúrgicas entre mulheres negras. O artigo investiga o contexto em que emergiram tais denúncias e a relevância dessas para a formação de uma identidade entre as ativistas negras.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2012-05-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X201200010000810.1590/S0104-026X2012000100008Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 20 No. 1 (2012); 133-151Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 20 Núm. 1 (2012); 133-151Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 20 n. 1 (2012); 133-1511806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2012000100008/21855Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDamasco, Mariana SantosMaio, Marcos ChorMonteiro, Simone2018-08-14T16:40:43Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/24681Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:38:11.730641Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
