This article aims to analyze the trajectory of a lesbian black teacher in the Southern region of Brazil, active in public education, with a focus on reflecting on (in)visibility in the educational space and the school daily life historically marked by mono identity productions. It intends to problematize the strategies and survival resources built during her trajectory, in order to evidence the production of pedagogical practices as essential methodologies of the cracks of a system that invisibilizes and nullifies black and lesbian existences. The discussion presents the family and school trajectory of a black and lesbian teacher until she reaches her performance in public education, based on her shared narrative, which is rebuilt, from a methodological point of view, from the realization of a comprehensive interview. This article concludes that such experiences, although singularized by individual existence, are social issues that coordinate knowledge and doings in the educational field.
Keywords: Trajectory. Black teaching. Lesbianity.
