Mulher do fim do mundo: violência feminicida contra a saúde da mulher negra

This article discusses feminicidal violence and some of its manifestations against Black women. It aims to highlight how everyday experiences and social and power relationships affect this population group and trivialize the violence that affects them, legitimizing high mortality rates from different preventable causes without these being considered a public health problem. Based on a bibliographical survey, the text shows the avoidability of deaths in cases of malignant neoplasms, HIV/AIDS, and suicide resulting from the mitigated access to healthcare associated with subjugations in the racist patriarchal system. Negligence and disregard motivated by structural racism and misogyny shape the death of Black women, revealed by a necropolitics of late diagnoses, failures in sensitization and prevention campaigns, lack of receptiveness, and adequate policies for that population. Relating such violations of the right to health with songs by Elza Soares, this study aims to bring art as an instrument of denunciation and a revival of silenced voices.

Abstract

This article discusses feminicidal violence and some of its manifestations against Black women. It aims to highlight how everyday experiences and social and power relationships affect this population group and trivialize the violence that affects them, legitimizing high mortality rates from different preventable causes without these being considered a public health problem. Based on a bibliographical survey, the text shows the avoidability of deaths in cases of malignant neoplasms, HIV/AIDS, and suicide resulting from the mitigated access to healthcare associated with subjugations in the racist patriarchal system. Negligence and disregard motivated by structural racism and misogyny shape the death of Black women, revealed by a necropolitics of late diagnoses, failures in sensitization and prevention campaigns, lack of receptiveness, and adequate policies for that population. Relating such violations of the right to health with songs by Elza Soares, this study aims to bring art as an instrument of denunciation and a revival of silenced voices.
