Abstract

This report is part of a master's research project that discussed how young women enunciate the gender issues that permeate their daily school life. In interlocution with Research-Inter(in)vention and the perspective of Research-Com, the aim of this article is to analyze the writings produced by young researchers from a public school on the outskirts of Fortaleza, Ceará, during this research. In this sense, it analyzes how these narratives produced through writings inspired by Conceição Evaristo challenge norms and stereotypes imposed by coloniality, which shapes the lives of peripheral young people through categories such as race, class and gender. Inspired by perspectives of decolonization of knowledge and being, the study proposes an approach that strengthens and empowers marginalized voices, using writing as a tool for empowerment and transformation. It is considered that these narratives function as instruments for denouncing the colonial structures still present in contemporary society, highlighting the re(existences) experienced by these bodies.
