Abstract

The present work sought to understand how the difficulties and perspectives of academic black women in the Business Administration course at the Federal University of Fronteira Sul, Chapecó campus, are perceived in their professional construction process. Feminism branches out into several strands, one of which is black feminism, in which it is believed that black women suffer double oppression, both by gender and by color. Through bibliographic reading on feminism, sexual division at work, racial and gender theories, the social identity of black women was studied. This research aimed to highlight the entrepreneurial profile and the experiences of the academics, to achieve it, as a technique of data collection applied a questionnaire using the metric of the Likert scale of five points as well as open questions, in which six academics responded digitally via Google Forms. The data analysis was carried out through an applied research, with a qualitative approach, of a descriptive nature, being bibliographical, where the selection of the subjects occurred by non-probabilistic sampling for convenience. As a result, the research exposed issues of gender relation and its influence on the life and professional construction of such women evidencing a sense of double effort in search of valorization and fight against racism, affirming the premise that black women need to face daily the double struggle: gender and race.
