This is a thesis on posters, banners, memes, booklets, stages, microphones, flyers, people on the street, megaphones, performances, videos, biographies, blogs, tweets and Facebook posts. This is a thesis on the social interactions involved in the struggle for recognition undertaken by trans activists in a plurality of stages that has been made available and built in the political arena. In the last decade, this struggle was constructed under the demand for visibility . Thus, the specific day of celebration or protest of trans people in Brazil, January 29, is called Trans Visibility Day . The visibility , whose historical construction can be realized by different means, is polysemic and contextual. It is therefore the initial objective of this thesis to explore the different meanings attributed to the visibility as a key category of political struggle in the activism of trans people in Brazil. Therefore, ethnographic observations were conducted in various meetings of activists, both exclusively trans as LGBT in general; in street protests; at seminars held in partnership with government agencies; in an election campaign and in online spaces of sociability and activism; as well as the analysis of various materials (posters, flyers, memes, brochures, banners, etc.) produced by activists; and two additional interviews to complement the ethnographic work. From that field material, I try to weave relationships between alternative regimes of visibility of transgender people and their struggle for recognition, focusing on social interactions (online and offline), in which are present communicative processes and stigma negotiations.
