This article aims to analyze the intersections between the concept of "opposing gaze" proposed by bell hooks and the report written by Lena Frias about the Black Rio movement in the 70s. The "opposing gaze" refers to the critical and conscious perspective that challenges the structures of oppression, while the report on Black Rio portrays what the Movement was from the perspective of affirming black identity. By exploring these concepts, this article seeks to highlight the ways, through the methodological process of Content Analysis, in which the report embodied the "oppositional gaze" as a tool of resistance, representation and social transformation.
