All Around the World Same Song: Transnational Anti-Black Racism and New (and Old) Directions for Critical Race Theory in Educational Research

“…For example, Ferreira and Medeiros (2016) illustrate the intersection of gendered oppression with racial injustice for Afro-Brazilian women while simultaneously providing counter-stories of resistance through the National Black Women's March. A multitude of reasons for the march existed, but an intersectional and gendered approach to racial justice centered Afro-Brazilian femicide along with issues concerning gendered institutionalized racism and patriarchy (Ferreira and Medeiros, 2016). Rocha (2012) also used storytelling to detail how Afro-Brazilian women suffer long-term consequences related to anti-Black violence.…”

“…Intersectionality is evident in the counter-stories of Black Brazilian women’s experiences with and resistance to systemic anti-Black racism (Caldwell, 2017; Cardoso, 2016; Carneiro, 2016; Gonzalez, 1983, 1988; Perry, 2004, 2013, 2016; Paschel, 2016b; Rocha, 2012; Smith, 2016).
