Abstract
This essay seeks to reflect on the enormous potential of the legacy of black feminist thought as a critical social theory to alleviate the theoretical, methodological, political, and ethical challenges for Public Health. Focusing on Social and Human Sciences in Health seeks to empirically analyze the contributions of the field in view of the historical trajectory of the development of public debates on women's health care or reproductive policies in their epistemological, social, and political displacements up to the implementation of the perspective of reproductive justice, claimed as a primordial dimension of the intersectional matrix. Anchored in a reflection on a certain academic trajectory of research in this field, this essay sheds light on the ethical-political confrontation of the expressive social inequalities in Brazil.
