Revered in various branches of Afro-Brazilian religions, “water” beings known as Marinheiros, Pescador, Capitão and Marujos are present in most terreiros in the Vitória da Conquista region, but also from Ilhéus to Bom Jesus da Lapa, as well as other regions of Bahia and Brazil. The study is constituted as an ethnography whose construction makes it possible to approach the “social life” of a spiritual entity in a context crossed by the various forms of racism in Brazilian society. One of the central figures in the terreiro, the Marujo, as he adapts to the life of the group and the person who receives him - Mãe Fátima, a leader of the terreiro - he also transforms himself, beyond a spiritual entity, into a social, educational, cultural and political agent who promotes group cohesion.

Taking as a reference Law No. 10.639/2003 and the National Curriculum Guidelines for the Education of Ethnic-Racial Relations, the research seeks to understand to what extent these legal frameworks have been appropriated and incorporated into the daily life of public schools, with special attention to the municipality of Jacobina and its area of influence. The investigation is grounded in the contributions of African Studies and African and Africanist historiography—produced both on the continent and in Brazil—as well as in the recognition of the centrality of the Black movement as a fundamental political subject in the formulation of the law and in the struggle over historical narratives in the school curriculum. The study adopts a qualitative approach using both documentary and empirical sources. It analyzes pedagogical projects from the History program at the State University of Bahia (UNEB), national curricular documents such as the National Curriculum Parameters (PCNs), to Law 10.639/2003. In addition, semi-structured interviews were conducted with public school teachers (especially History teachers) and school administrators working in the region. The interviews were examined based on oral history methodology, according to Verena Alberti, and analyzed using content analysis as proposed by Laurence Bardin. The data reveal advances in the recognition of Afro-Brazilian history and culture in the curriculum, alongside significant challenges in implementation. Gaps remain in teacher training, difficulties in accessing appropriate teaching materials, and institutional resistance that limits the law's effectiveness. On the other hand, there are specific pedagogical initiatives that demonstrate a commitment to transforming history teaching and valuing African ancestry as a structuring dimension of national identity. By highlighting the tensions between legislation and school practices, this thesis contributes to the debate on educational policies related to ethnic-racial relations and reaffirms the importance of a critical approach to history that engages with Black epistemologies and the knowledge produced in peripheral educational territories.

Having as a starting point an anthropological research sustained by formal academic writing, this work has transcended such forms, favoring creative writing and an immersion on performative art. The persona which initially narrates – and is object of narration – is called Nêngua, a word of Kikongo origin that serve as a metaphor for the role occupied by women vis-à-vis their diasporic communities. My goal is to understand which collective strategies were built by black people in diaspora and how aged people provided care, guidance, and shelter to their communities in situations of enslavement or redesigning projects of freedom after the abolition of slavery. I argue that when ancestors are my own ancestors, ethical and poetic challenges emerge: how to narrate without taking out their dignity again and their self-right to possess their own speeches? This Dissertation is situated at the boundaries, of art and anthropology, between distinct was of narrating a story full of hardships, which still is bleeding but it is on its way to healing, between Brazil and Uruguay, in the heart of the diaspora.

Autor(es): Jacinto, Ana Luzia Pires Lobo Primeiro Orientador: Zamparoni, Valdemir Donizette Abstract: Since the last quarter of the 15th century, the Portuguese crown estabilished the first colonization of the islands São Tomé and Príncipe and during the first decade of the 16th century, the first phase of the relationship between the island and Congo and Ndongo African Kingdoms, started.That relationship was ensured through the transatlantic slave trade and the use of aAfrican slave working force provided by those kingdoms for the development of sugar-cane monoculture and production, registered along the 16th century. The second phase of that relationship between those two Portuguese colonies ( São Tomé and Príncipe and Angola) were estabilished since the 19th century, within the context of the development of plantations ( " roças") of coffe and cacao, according to the cicle in question belonging to each monoculture, using working force exported from the regions which comprise the territory of Angola today.Along with the process of slavery abolition in its colonies, Portugal was engulfed in a deep financial crisis during the last half of the 19th century until the beginning of the 20th century and this led the portuguese to search for other ways to continue exploiting African labour in order to develop " roças" on those inslands applying for instance, to the edition of new specific laws to regulate African Labour ( " leis especiais" or special laws) which transformed both insland into one of the major exporters of cacao seeds in the world, providing raw materials for chocolate manufacturers in Western Europe and North America between 1890 and 1912. Defining elements of recruitment and exportation of working force from Angola to coffee and mainly to cacao " roças" in São Tomé and Príncipe are discussed along this research and this topic was a determinant process of the labour conditions of african labourers in general exported to the islands, but particularly more unfavorable for the African labourers from the countryside of Angola and this was the cause of the emergence of controversies concerning to the labour conditions and the truthfulness of labour contracts the Angolan labourers were subjected to. Contract which were incongruent to free and wage labour conditions of that era, and also to the particular issue of the Angolan labourers repatriation due to the failure to comply with it. Besides the use of sources from authors allied ideologically to the colonial policy and other contemporary authors of the period of this research, documents related to the colonial labour policy, as for instance, oficial guidelines for " indigenous" African labour like contract labourers surveys, commisary ad hoc voyages minutes, and also documents available in many boxes and codexes at Arquivo Nacional de Angola ( in Luanda), Arquivo Histórico de São Tomé e príncipe ( in São Tomé island), Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino ( incluinding the Fundo Francisco Mantero) and Arquivo Histórico Militar de Portugal, both in Lisbon, with emphasis on documents refering to the general uprising of Portuguese Congo District. During the period of interviews, some of the interviewed Angolan serviçais ( contracted labourers) descendents were residents in São Tomé island and other were residents in Luanda and Benguela. From a qualitative approach and crossing of sources, this research demonstrates how a working system during the post- emancipation period was inserted in the phase of transition between the transatlantic colonial slavery and the emergence of the free and wage labour system in Africa.
