This article focuses on the analysis of the experience of black women elected to Belém City Council in the 2020 election by left-wing parties. Based on debates on gender, race and political representation, the aim is to understand the trajectories of those elected in the largest capital in the North of the country. Methodologically, we conducted interviews with four women, configuring this set as a case study, as it is the largest number of black women historically elected to the legislative house. The in-depth interviews were analyzed from three main paths: the previous trajectory of the legislators; the relationship with the parties and the 2020 campaign crossed by the covid19 pandemic. The analysis demonstrates the previous relationship of women with political activism, especially student activism and the influence of black feminism in their political construction, as well as internal inequalities and disputes with the subtitles for candidacies.
