This thesis aims to comprehend the agency of women of the organization Coletivo Empodere Se in the process of construction of their quilombola and black identities in a community that was recently certified as a remaining group of a quilombo - quilombola community of Pinhões, located in the town of Santa Luzia, in the metropolitan area of Belo Horizonte/Minas Gerais. The creation of the Coletivo Empodere Se is one of the effects of legal recognition. The field research was developed through ethnography in which we sought to apprehend how going through different territories reverberates across the women’s agency of the women of this organization. We observed that they reinterpret the places they occupy, question the roles and values attributed by the culture and signal to other ways of being women in the quilombo of Pinhões, a process permeated by dilemmas in the auto definition around the symbols, body and curly hair, constitutive of the black racial identity. We noticed the importance of the place occupied by women in the construction of the quilombo, since they assume preponderance in the forms of their organization. From the experiences of the movement of the women who compose this group through spaces inside and outside of Pinhões, it is possible to see ways in which they reinvent their form of racial identification as women, quilombolas and black women
