Discussion 2: Memory, Media, & Representation of Women

This group discussed the perceptions of women in capoeira, and who controls the images presented of women.

The group resolved that women need more control over the images of themselves within the capoeira community, and as such, they are going to start a website to present more realistic images of women capoeiristas, document the planning of women's events, and create an archive of past women conferences.

Look forward to seeing that soon!
