The presence of gender violence in the media has led to the misconception that it is a social problem of the twenty-first century. However, in the literature of the last century, it can be seen that this phenomenon has always been present. Through the analysis of the play for colored girls, written by Ntozake Shangue, this essay will explore the situation of African- American women in American society in the twentieth century, focusing on the constant presence and threat of sexual violence suffered by the seven protagonists in a society where they suffer double discrimination. Key words: sexual violence, African American, literature, trauma. Titulo en espanol: “Women Relinquish All Personal Rights in Front of a Man”: analisis de la violencia sexual en For Coloured Girls de Ntozake Shange. Resumen: La presencia de violencia de genero en los medios de comunicacion nos ha llevado a la idea erronea de que se trata de un problema social del siglo XXI, pero si nos sumergimos en la literatura del siglo pasado, descubriremos que este tema siempre ha estado presente. En este ensayo, exploraremos la situacion de las mujeres afroamericanas en la sociedad estadounidense en el siglo XX a traves del analisis de la obra de teatro for colored girls de Ntozake Shangue, centrandonos en la constante presencia y la amenaza de la violencia sexual que las siete protagonistas padecen en una sociedad donde son doblemente discriminadas.
