Dissertação (Mestrado em Antropologia Social) - Faculdade de Ciências Sociais, Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2024.https://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tede/14818This research, carried out in the Quilombo Extrema, located in the municipality of Iaciara, Goiás, Brazil, discussed the processes of health, illness and cure, having as its starting point the trajectory of the matriarch Catarina Maria da Conceição. For this, we discuss the power relations in the production of knowledge about health; we investigate the perception of Extrema people on the subject; We identified ancestral care practices in the community and addressed structural and institutional racism as producers of suffering and illness. From the analysis it was possible to elect the State and the Catholic Church as the main promoters of weakening health practices in Extrema. The State operates by updating the processes of colonization in public policies, Necropolitics and institutionalized racism. The Catholic Church acts in the processes of catechizing and demonizing our religiosity. Contracolonization is conceived as the movement of opposition to such violence. Thus, the developed care technologies and the relationship of (dis)obedience established with the Catholic Church were presented.Acesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Saúde quilombolaAncestralidadeColonialismoContracolonizaçãoQuilombola healthAncestryColonialismContracolonizationCIENCIAS HUMANAS::ANTROPOLOGIADissertação
