SUMMARY:

The territory is an active element that reflects the developed and structuring dynamics of society. Thus, the use, occupation and appropriation of the territory takes place in a differentiated way by the bodies that inhabit it. Hence, this work aims to investigate the relationship that black women living in urban areas establish with the territories they inhabit through their written productions. A discussion was carried out on how different is space appropriation by female and black bodies. This debate was substantiated by the Lélia Gonzalez concepts of racial division of place, Milton Santos’ discussion on social class spatial segregation, and the importance of the race marker in this relationship between body, identity and territory brought by Beatriz Nascimento. As well, the importance of virtual territories was explained, given the pandemic context in which this work has been developed. In addition, a discussion was built on the role of writing in the lives of black women and how their writing is always permeated by a place. In the methodological stage, semi-structured virtual interviews were carried out with the 9 selected participants. They are all black women writers living in urban areas. From the analyses, it was possible to verify the positive connection between participants and spaces. Such process was strongly influenced by race. However, they pointed to the need to contest the material conditions that are offered to effect this appropriation of space, which come from different spheres such as conditions of urban mobility and disinvestment in cultural policies. Both points were of fundamental importance for the participants. Thus, this work helps in the production of questions about what conditions are offered to black women so that they occupy cities in such a way that their bodies and life productions are seen, which directly affects the production of citizenship and their right to the city.
