Encouraged by the 70th anniversary of the assault on the Moncada headquarter, the beginning of the Cuban revolutionary process, this article aims to analyze the relationship between Brazilian women who engaged in the armed struggle against the civil-military dictatorship and the guerrilla training carried out in Cuba. Through the subjectivity of the militant woman, it seeks to fill a historiographical gap on the relations between Cuba – and its revolutionary model – and the Brazilian revolutionary organizations. Although in a minority, women were present in the Brazilian groups that carried out training on the island from 1964 onwards. In it, they felt the pressures and “unnamed malaise” in the face of a revolutionary model and, especially, a militant model based on a androcentric perspective. The aim is, therefore, to shed light on gender cleavages and difficulties imposed on Brazilian revolutionary women in the context of the predominance of Cuban foquism as a revolutionary strategy.
