Gender, Work and Organization, 2021, vol. 28, issue S2, 434-445

Abstract: This article reflects on how the COVID‐19 pandemic has affected the lives of black men who work as app delivery workers in Brazil. The coronavirus spread affected the demand for delivery services in the last mile delivery without necessarily improving working conditions. We highlight not only how structural racism shapes the daily lives of these workers, revealing experiences of inequality, marginalization, suffering, but also their resistance strategies.
