Social markers of difference in the school experience of young black women

Abstract:

We analyzed the gender and race markers present in the experiences of young black students at a public school. For this, we use the ethnographic approach in order to understand how such markers operate in the process of building the subjectivities of young black women. With this, questions about identity, representativeness and resistance emerged interrelating in the process of building subjectivities, which evidenced the emergence of gender and race markers in the dynamics established in the school context. From this reading, we understand that the experiences of the subjects who transit in the school context reinforce the importance of the school in the process of building subjectivities.
