Black activist, intellectual anthropologist, born in Belo Horizonte, Lélia Gonzales revolutionized the black and anti-racist movement in Brazil, and her legacy bears fruit to this day.

In addition to great works for the black movement, her militancy contributed to boosting not only the racial problem in Brazil, but also the role of black women in society.

According to Lélia Gonzalez, the concept of culture should be thought of in terms of plurality and serve as an element of political awareness.

To support the movement, Lélia will represent the institution CUFA Mães da Favela, which helps thousands of mothers in critical situations of poverty.
