SUMMARY:

The following paper seeks to critically debate the construction of the memories related to Mariana Grajales Cuello, a black woman who became a symbol FOR THE (???) Cuban women, A protagonist of the political struggles DURING the island's independence, which took place from 1868 onwards. Popularly, Grajales is still recognized by her fellow countrymen as “Mother of the Homeland”. The study of the Grajales case aims to understand the work of constructing the memory of this iconic character, considering the possible disputes related to the construction of the pantheon of Cuban national memory in different contexts, such as independence, in the mid-19th century, and the Cuban Revolution, in the mid-20th century. The theoretical framework of the research includes studies on the construction of collective memory and national identity, in light of reflections on the history of gender relations. The methodology aims to account for diverse sources: from correspondence, through biographical texts, monuments and symbols that represent the character studied.
