Abstract

This article aims to discuss, based on the contributions of Lélia Gonzalez to the field of social psychology, the intersections between gender and race in the experience of young black individuals in peripheral contexts in Fortaleza. It starts from a qualitative approach, exploring micropolitical strategies to understand the impacts of gender and racial coloniality on young blacks in peripheral areas of Fortaleza. The narratives highlight gender asymmetries and unequal conditions faced by young blacks in racialized contexts. The article emphasizes the importance of debating racial and gender inequalities, denaturalizing instruments of domination present in the Brazilian social structure. The research proposes the production of narratives challenging colonial modes of domination, emphasizing the need for critical epistemologies of coloniality in psychology to strengthen anti-racist and anti-sexist struggles.
