| Summary: | This article addresses the issue of diversity in the womens movement through an
assessment of the participation of the Articulação das Mulheres Brasileiras (AMB) in the III World
Conference Against Racism. The conditions that determined this participation can be found in
the struggles and negotiations that marked the trajectories of womens political organization
and of feminist thought in Brazil. For the authors, the debate black women proposed concerning
specific conditions of subordination opened up new possibilities for analyzing womens role in
production and reproduction. However, these approaches were only incorporated into the
practice of the feminist movement during preparation for both the Beijing Conference and
Beijing+5. The participation of the AMB in the Durban Conference points out to the increasing
recognition of black womens identity, the acknowledgment of diversity and the construction of
a political agenda that places the intersection of gender and race discrimination at the center. |
