Sumario:Focused on the articulation between the maternal figure and the political action of women/mothers who combat the murder of young Black men, cover of the third print edition of Revista Afirmativa, discussed in this paper, sparks a dialectical link between life and death, against the genocide of Black people. In the materiality of its composition, the illustration constitutes the potency of living female bodies engaged in combating Black youth genocide, subverting the discourse that frames it as an author of violence. This paper investigates how such process forms communicability that performs political existences capable of tensioning the police logic of the modern State, revealing structures of feeling that are upheld by an idea of the collective to institute other ways of existing.
