“WHERE ARE THE WOMEN BLACK SPORTS COACHES?” THE EXPERIENCE OF A WOMAN BLACK COACH IN THE FEMINIST FUTSAL PROJECT
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to analyze and discuss the experience of a black woman coach in the Feminist Futsal extension project at a Brazilian federal university. The study is an (auto) biographical narrative, whose source of information production is the records, in Field Diary, of the first author, about her experience as a futsal coach in the project. The analyzes and discussions are carried out in dialogue with the theoretical contribution of black feminism, based on four categories: (1) My place of speech: between the past and the present; (2) Writings: my story, let me tell it; (3) Self-definition processes: recognizing my blackness and; (4) Becoming a coach at the Feminist Futsal Project: narratives of a black woman. This study made it possible to understand the indispensability of an analysis that considers the intersectionality of social markers of race, gender and class differences.
