Abstract
The feminization of the stage of migration in Chile, invisibility, and statistics that do not account for the migration of Afro-descendant women generate problems of asymmetric intercultural process. Our purpose was to investigate representation and negotiation of narrative identities of African-descendant migrant women recently arrived (between 11 months and 9 years) to the region of Coquimbo, Chile. This study dealt with a sample of 10 semi-structured interviews with a qualitative method from the perspective of the narrative construction of the identity. The main results of the analysis, in terms of narrative identities demonstrate a) references to the conditions of vulnerability because of sexist and racist practices and b) identity-agentive strategies to face devaluation of the host society, whose rhetorical and discursive correlates they deployed in their narratives.
