RESUMO:

Food security has been studied under a multidimensional approach, which reflects the complexity of this concept, considering different realities. However, there are only a few that, when noted that the Black population and women are more susceptible to food insecurity, take into consideration the influence of systemic determinants such as racism and sexism. One of the ways to progress in this direction is to use the intersectionality approach in the analysis of food insecurity in a way to better understand the reality faced by these groups. The aim of this research isto analyse food (in)security in the household, from the perspective of race and gender intersectionalities, in the city of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. This is an analysis using the data from a cross-sectional and population-based study entitled Qualidade do Ambiente Urbano de Salvador, carried out between 2018 and 2020. The sample was defined using systematic random sampling without return of households in 160 neighbourhoods, based on the information available on Salvador’s system of basic sanitation, which covers 98% of the capital and contains a georeferenced registry of active and inactive water connection. For the present analysis, 14,713 households were considered. The outcome was food (in)security situation, classified as mild and moderate or severe, collected from the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale, which was applied along the larger survey questionnaire that contained 62 questions. The main exposure was the crossing of race and sex variables: white man, white woman, black man and black woman. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to estimate the association between main exposure and outcome, adjusted for socioeconomic variables and stratified according to education and per capita family income. In most households black women (50.1%) were the main or even solo breadwinners for their families. In second place, black men (35.4%), then white women (8.3%) and lastly white men (6.2%). The prevalence of food security was higher in households headed by a white man (74.5%), followed by a white woman (69.5%), a black man (62.2%) and a black woman (53.2%). Households headed by black women had higher chances of mild food insecurity (OR=1.39; 95%CI 1.15-1.68; p=0.001) and moderate or severe (OR= 1.94; 95%CI1.49- 2.52; p<0.001) in comparison to households headed by white men. These households were more likely to have moderate or severe food insecurity at all levels of education and in the ranges up to ½ minimum wage and >1 minimum wage. When the main breadwinner was a black man, the highest chances for this condition were in the households with earnings around the range of > 1 minimum wage. Households held by a black woman were the ones with the highest chances of being food insecure, even in socioeconomically favourable conditions. Due to social disadvantages and discriminatory practices experienced by the Black population, the progress related to education and income issues are not universal. The situation of black women is even more concerning and food insecurity in the households headed by this group reveals itself as one of the consequences of the structural interaction of racism and sexism.
