And Ain’t I a Woman? Intersectional Issues in Luedji Luna’s Work and The Music Scene in Salvador

Abstract

In this article we present the case study of the visual album of the singer and composer Luedji Luna, Bom Mesmo é Estar Debaixo d'Água (2020) with the objective of evaluating the contribution of black feminist women to the current music scene in Salvador. As part of the Black Atlantic diasporic music network, this scene, which has been renewing itself since 2009, is what we call the Afro-Latin scene. Mobilizing notions such as intersectionality, gendered racism and music scenes, this work seeks to think about the concept of music scene from a dialogue with race and gender issues in a decolonial perspective, which allows us to understand the visibilities and invisibilities of urban cultural phenomena and contemporaries in black and Latino cities like Salvador.
