By adopting Lélia Gonzalez's provocation (2020) of knowing how we black women got here, this research was dedicated to carrying out simultaneous returns and projections to a historical time when the history of black women did not begin, but which, until now, seems to have defined it. The objective of this research is to analyze, based on the observation of the audiovisual texts published by the G1 and UOL news portals, how the “controlling images” (Collins, 2019) can perpetuate and/or update the logic of exclusion of black women in the construction of journalistic narratives. The analytical exercise also had the intention to understand the obliteration and denial of black women in journalistic coverage of crimes motivated by gender relations. The collection focused on the weeks dedicated to remembering the sanctions of the “Maria da Penha Law” and the “Femicide Law”, in the years 2021 and 2022. From the theoretical bases on racism as an organizer of power dynamics in Brazil and from the denial of black womanhood, I sought to carry out a historical reconstruction of the country since slavery, observing official textual records such as newspapers and legal texts. Through black feminist thinkers such as Lélia Gonzalez, bell hooks, Sueli Carneiro, Luiza Bairros, and Patricia Hill Collins, we identified the continuity of the dehumanization of black women until their deaths did not generate commotion. Then, to rewrite these impossible narratives, we followed the decolonial orientation of Rita Cusicanqui (2015), who revealed the territory of the taypi and the exercise of a return gaze to colonized bodies.
