| Résumé: | The study aims to analyze the symbolic valences identified in news published on the G1 Portal from all Brazilian states about the first acts of vaccination against covid-19, relating them to issues of race and gender with a focus on women and their position in society. From this perspective, we seek to answer, under the anchorage of Algirdas Julien Greimas’ semiotics, how women were represented in each state. The results portray women as a ‘fragile’ and ‘dependent’ social subject, from the State as a ‘Father-Provider’, alongside the use of black women representing ‘minorities’ that refer to an idea of a diverse and miscegenated Brazil. The conclusions show that the visibility given to women in vaccination campaigns disputed space with sexist and racist representations. |
