Opis

This research is a case study conducted in the city of Buenaventura, Valle del Cauca, where two Afro women of two different generations were interviewed in order to learn their life stories and identify the tensions that arise when trying to preserve their culture, their identity and at the same time how they have grown over time. For the development of the study, three fundamental concepts related to each other were addressed, which serve as support for the achievement of its purpose. These are: Gender, Culture and Family. These concepts are articulated in the social and daily dynamics of the communities approached from different perspectives, which is why in the review it is important to identify elements that contribute to the purpose of the research on the role of Afro women today in relation to their origin and conservation of their cultural values.
