O feminismo negro nas canções de Bia Ferreira

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the lyrics of songs by Bia Ferreira, pointing out how they dialogue with central issues of black feminism. It is to demonstrate how the lyrics address the articulations between gender, race and class oppressions, with emphasis on issues such as the objectification of black women, racist and sexist oppressions; as well as to present some considerations about the types of female subjects present in the songs and how they claim their space. Through an analysis of Bia Ferreira's songs "Cota não é es almola", "Não precisa ser Amélia", "De dentro do ap" and "Diga não" from theoretical references such as Gonzalez, hooks, Collins, Carneiro, Davis, we discuss how stereotypes associated with gender and race subjugate black women in Brazilian society, oppressing them through misogyny and racism, reflections of the slavery past that the country lived for centuries, and that still has great impacts on the lives of black people.
