In this review, we critically reflect on the exclusionary practices in the social organization of a cisnormative society based on the song “Carta aberta” by Monna Brutal. The lyrics denounce the oppression suffered by her and by the transgender, travesti and gender non-conforming population in Brazil, the most transphobic country in the world for 15 consecutive years. We discuss the potential of music for social awareness, the resistance of minority groups, and possibilities for future explorations on music, resistance, and organizations.
