Resumo

Uniting the visibility of the struggles of black quilombola women is the central point of this dissertation that analyzes the social role of women in the territory of São José da Serra in Rio de Janeiro. We turn our gaze to the cultural practices of this community, highlighting how the Afro-Brazilian expression of jongo is appropriated by women as a form of protagonism and transformation of their realities. As this is a qualitative research, we have recorded informal conversations and field observation. Under the interdisciplinary theoretical support established between geographical science, History and Anthropology, the dialogue develops in three main moments: first we start from the writing of quilombola women, academic and non-academic, about their existential territories and we reach a conceptual approach about the ethnic-racial territories in the context of rural quilombola communities; in a second moment, we situate the profile of the historical-geographical conditions of the territory of São José da Serra; and, finally, we weave how women relate to each other, to the territory and in the territory, creating spaces for mutual strengthening against racist and sexist devices. The research highlights the territorial and identity affirmation strategies of the group, highlighting the ethnic-social bonds established through the jongo memory network formed by different jongo communities in the Vale do Paraíba Fluminense. It is also possible to observe the protagonism of women from São José who play different roles in decision-making based on domestic, religious and productive spaces in the daily life of the community.
