Abstract

MALPIGHI, Vanessa Cristina da Silva; BARREYRO, Luz Amparo López; MARIGLIANO, Rilza Xavier  and  LEOPOLDO, Kae. Feminine blackness in Brazil: an analysis focused on higher education and corporate executives. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.48, pp. 325-338. ISSN 2175-1390.

This article aims to investigate the Public Educational and Business Policies that combat the social inequality of black women in Brazil. It is noted the social ascension of black women, but they still remain underrepresented. The data presented in this study refer to the percentage of black women in the University and in executive positions of the private sector. By emphasizing the Affirmative Policies to face inequalities, to problematize the place offeminine blackness is to reiterate the need for Policies that achieve female blackness and the social structure. This way, thinking about the insertion of black women in Higher Education is also reflecting on their possibilities of development and emancipation.

Keywords : Black woman; Higher education; Work; Affirmative policies.
