RECONHECER É POLÍTICO: A RECUPERAÇÃO DO LEGADO DAS MULHERES PIONEIRAS NO FUTEBOL BRASILEIRO

Resumo

This review aims to analyze the book “As pioneiras do futebol pedem passagem: conhecer para reconhecer”, written by Silvana Goellner and Juliana Cabral. The work aims to rescue the stories of women who played football between the end of the ban on female football until the beginning of the 2000s, showing the difficulties and issues that these athletes faced. Combining biographical narratives and testimonials, the book adds to discussions about gender in sport and contributes to placing women as protagonists in the sport. Still, it is important to analyze the autobiographical aspect and how memory was rescued and discussed during the work, along with its contributions to the fields of research on gender and sports.
