The intersectional analysis of markers of race, class and gender has been an important ethical and methodological tool for understanding the conditions of oppression experienced by people in poverty. It is recognized that these markers can generate both oppression and resistance processes that affect their lifestyle. Thus, the objective is to analyze the impacts of gender, race, and poverty intersections on the lifestyle of women in a community in the Northeast of Brazil. The proposal was carried out from a qualitative perspective with semi-structured interviews with seven black women. They are residents of a poor community with less than 30,000 inhabitants. Content analysis of the material produced was carried out. It was identified that patriarchal, classist and racist macro-social structures exert an influence on the lifestyle of these women. As a consequence, the existence of trajectories of violence and poverty was observed, fostering specific processes of oppression, sometimes also reproduced by women themselves. However, it is important to point out that these women have also produced dissonances, allowing them to experience resistance and new forms of agency to produce new lifestyle that reveal the possibility of confronting these social ailments.

Palabras clave : intersectionality; gender; race; poverty.
