30 years of autonomous political articulation - The National Meeting of black women 30 Years: against Racism and Violence and for the Good Life - black women Movem o Brasil marks the 30th anniversary of the First Meeting held in the city of Valença, Rio de Janeiro, in 1988. The 30 years of the contemporary political rearticulation of black women bring the history and challenges of mobilization to affirm Leadership in the political struggle, to affirm its identity and even its existence. The Goiânia meeting seeks to expand a positive national agenda, recently strengthened by the March of black women against Racism and Violence and for Good Living, which already called for a new civilizational pact for Brazil. The March mobilized different political forces in the movement and brought more than 50,000 activists to Brasilia in 2015.
