Abstract
ABSTRACT The present article explores the concept of ‘warrior ethos’ as discussed by Norbert Elias to propose an alternative notion of ‘warrior ethos’ constructed by Brazilian mothers of victims of institutional violence, who identify themselves as ‘warrior mothers’. To support the argument, I bring the discussion about black motherhood from Patricia Hill Collins and Angela Davis. This work is the result of a multi-situated ethnography on the political performance of mothers of victims of state violence in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 2014 to 2018.
