Abstract:
The present work deals with the constitution of the identity of black woman in the remnant
community of the quilombo of São Benedito do Vizeu. This objective aims to know, how
these remnants of this quilombo in the municipality Mocajuba-Para form their identity in the
labor activities associated with the knowledge of work in a historical materiality of life with
the working class. The research is based on the historical-dialectical materialism method in
the face of contradictions and mediations from the principle of totality. It also stands out a
qualitative approach with the semi-structured interview, associated with content analysis to
understand that the voices and memories of these women narrate constitution of identity in
relation to the world of work. In this methodological bias we start from authors such as Marx
(2010), Marx and Engels (2007), Thompson (1981), Schwartz (2003), Tiriba (2009),
Rodrigues (2012), Pinto (2012), Davis (1987), Beauvoir (1985), Saviani (1997), Mead (1999),
Aquime (2018), Santos (2003), Antunes (2010), Hirata (2015), Saffioti (1987), Bogo (2009),
Dubar (2009) among others who seek the ways of these discussions. In this research the
research found that black women in this community reveal an identity that occurs in the
antagonism between capital and labor and as their work, given the intensification of survival
needs, materializes in the various activities in which they participate all their lives. it creates a
product of her work is alienated alienated. In this, the narratives do not only present the work
with this anthological relationship of the human being, where we observe a singularity of the
identity of these women, because they dominate the totality of the productive process, but,
contradictorily, this process is strange to the result of production. Given the analyzes we also
understand a polyvalent identity of these black women, resulting from the capitalist mode of
production, which does not guarantee them the basic conditions of existence. They master a
set of crafts to meet needs and the market, even because they are linked to an exploration
process that is linked to a triple journey between professional knowledge, work knowledge
and home knowledge. That is, this woman accumulates knowledge and identifies through
them among them we still find an identity of resistance that is represented at work time and in
the collective efforts opposing the logic of capital
