Résumé
This study examines the experiences and positionalities of three highly skilled Brazilian women in France, who underwent a process of being seen as the Other during immigration, a circumstance, as we understood, of Situated Whiteness. Using intimate and introspective data, we discuss how we become the Other and how our experiences involve attachment to previous symbolic capital to feel less foreign, resulting in a state of in-betweenness. The latter encompasses different dimensions of Otherness and oscillations in one’s symbolic capital that balance foreignness and belonging.
