Memória social dos quilombos do Cariri um acervo virtual em construção

Abstract

The lack of registration of the oral traditions of quilombola communities and the urgent need to strengthen the quilombos in a context of persecution and invisibility justify this research, which seeks to contribute to the production of knowledge as well asto collect memory and oral tradition of the Quilombo Serra dos Mulatos, in Jardim/CE. In a qualitative approach, we used bibliographical research and documental survey. In a later stage, field research will becarried out with the application of interviews and complementary methodologies. The objective is to capture and understand the memories that permeate the process of self-recognition and the potential impact of preserving the quilombola memory in the reality of the community. This is an important contribution to valuing the country's cultural diversity and to strengthening the remaining quilombo communities, ensuring that future generations have access to those oral traditions and the memory of their ancestors.
