Abstract

In this article, the discussion is based on data produced in doctoral research. It is based on authors of black feminist and decolonial thought, including Patricia Collins (2016), Curriel (2014), Angela Davis (2016), bell hooks (2018), Gonzalez (1981, 1984), Beatriz Nascimento (1974) and Oyeronke Oyewumi (2010). A decolonizing ethnography was sought, establishing conversations with six women from the Fazenda Santa Cruz quilombo, located in the Alto Jequitinhonha region, in the municipality of Serro, in Minas Gerais. The related care practices were observed, which cut across the cultural practices developed by the women, occurring in a shared way through a "family care" announced by territoriality.
