Análise historiográfica acerca das comunidades quilombolas no Brasil

Abstract

The so-called “remnant quilombola communities” underwent radical changes in the 20th century regarding their formation and their due recognition as a social, cultural and geographic space constituted by specific and specialized practices that reflect the black/African heritage in Brazil. Therefore, as the social perspective changes, the political, legal and academic perspectives change concomitantly. Therefore, this work aims to discuss the facets that constitute the understanding of these communities based on a scientific bibliographic reference using exponents such as Gomes (2022), Fry and Vogt (1996), Molet (2020) and Almeida (2008). Based on the reading of Thompson (1988; 2021), we delight in the concept of “experience”, which instrumentalizes the understanding of the formation of rural black communities that will be understood not only within the framework of slave society. It is therefore concluded that quilombola communities are expanding spaces in terms of geographic demarcation, social and cultural reach and as rebuilders of public policies.
