This text constitutes a reflexive approach to the social construction of the gender based on the testimony of childhood and youth my great grandmother Ambrosia Agramonte. Her memories as a Cuban black woman in the first half of the twentieth century, allow us to establish the ways in which racism, sexism and other forms of discrimination in the microsocial sphere were based, at the same time make it possible to visualize the alternatives that she put into practice to survive the social structure that corresponded to it and the way in which alternative femininities were molded from the popular classes.

Palabras llave : Gender and history; Cuban black woman; alternative femininity; memory; first half of the 20th century.
