The objective of this paper is to analyze how the black female poetic self in Noémia de Sousa
formalizes labor relations and what specificities involve the writing of black women. Initially,
a contextualization of the colonial period in Mozambique is made to demonstrate how this
system was structured based on forced labor and what the consequences of labor exploitation
were in the lives of the colonized population, especially black women. In the sequence, we
discuss specificities involving the production of African women writers with emphasis on the
work of Noémia de Sousa, in which the presence of the labor theme is undeniable. The third
chapter condenses the analysis of the poems of the author, in which two perspectives of
formalization of the denunciation of labor relations are found. The first one manifests a
collective look on the workers built from three poetic procedures. The second shows that it is
in the dialogue with black female workers that the poetics acquires a particular characteristic:
the feminine look around the feminine, building a "poetics of the sisters" based on the feeling
of the black feminine sisterhood.
