This article aims to rescue and highlight the protagonism of Black women in the fight against slavery in Brazil, combating the historical erasure promoted by traditional historiography. The methodology employed consists of a bibliographic and documentary review, which analyzes the biographies of leaders such as Dandara dos Palmares, Tereza de Benguela, and Zacimba Gaba, among others. The study is based on concepts such as intersectionality, decoloniality, and critical race theory to deconstruct hegemonic narratives. As a main result, the article shows that these women were active agents who exercised political, military, and spiritual leadership, organizing quilombos and other forms of resistance. We believe that sharing their life stories is a fundamental part of a more complete and just understanding of Brazil's sociopolitical formation. This diversifies historical narratives and recognizes the contribution of Black women to the achievement of freedom and the construction of our national identity.
