SUMMARY:

From a decolonial approach and in articulation with intersectional feminism, this paper seeks to identify how discourses have been constructed around issues related to race and gender in agroecology. It questions how the idealization and naturalization of universal women contribute to the erasure and silencing of black women in the construction of this field of knowledge, and it is observed how these women who suffer from the processes of racialization have touted/claimed their place of enunciation in this scope. The methodological strategies used were: systematic literature review and literature review, as well as interviews with 12 women who participate in the dynamics of the Women's WG of the National Articulation of Agroecology (ANA) and/or of the Women's WG of the Brazilian Agroecology Association (ABA), using critical discourse analysis as a critical perspective in the production of knowledge. As a result, it is clear that although agroecology announces in its discourse the proposition of a project of social transformation with a view to confronting and overcoming, above all, social, racial and gender inequalities, emphasizing social justice and the pursuit of living well for society as a whole, the demand for the visibility of women's participation and protagonism is still the order of the day. Considering this context, the struggle that has been waged by the feminist movement in agroecology has advanced in looking at the diversity of women, where, from the point of view of the narratives presented in the text, they are peasant, indigenous, Asian, quilombola, rural, among others. , however, the announced anti-racism does not locate color, felt in the skin of black women, as central in the Brazilian reality. It is possible to see that there is an ongoing dialogue regarding the recognition of intersectionality as an important reflective instrument, but without making use of its political character, summing up to a theoretical appeal.
