Resumo:
The problematic involving the lesbianity in History is markedly liked to its violent
invisibility, this characteristic causing social, political and historiographic consequences.
Discussions about female homosexuality, for having racist, sexist and classist bases, are
very silente, but it is worth noting that they are never silent. In this way, we seek to
undestand the trajectory of the brazilian lesbian movement, using the history of Feminist
Lesbian Action Group (FLAG 19811988),
from São Paulo, and the thirteen editions of
Newspapper and Bulletin ChanacomChana (19811987),
main file for this research. The
periodical was a space and agent of resistance, which questioned patriarchal sexist
domination, the binary patterns of female and male, markedly heterosexual, as well as
criticizing the white and heterosexist feminist movement, besides having discussed
famele and lesbian health and sexuality. The general objective of our research is to reflect
how the lesbians of the FLAG, when they assumed themselves politically as lesbians,
inscribed in their speeches, mainly mapped by ChanacomChana, a meaning of lesbian
identity different from the stigmatized view that linked these identities to crime or
desease. In addition to this, we built three specifics objectives, which articulated, guided
our dissertation production. They are: Understanding the beginning of the lesbian and
feminist movement; Discuss the relationship between the feminist and homossexual
movement with the lesbian movement, pointing out the frictions and similarities;
Discussing lesbian sexuality and health. We adopted the methodology of discourse
analysis, based on Michel Foucault reflections on the concept of discourse, for the
analysis of all editions of ChanacomChana, as well as other periodicals that were used.
For the operationalization of the research, we used theoretical and methodological
dialogues provided by Stuart Hall (2006), Patrícia Lessa (2007), Tânia NavarroSwain
(2004), Monique Wittig (1980; 2006), Adrienne Rich (2010), Michel Foucault (1996;
1978; 1987; 1999), Kimberlé Crenshaw (2002), Audre Lorde (2020), among many other
authors who served to base this research.
