SUMMARY:

This work seeks to dialogue about Maracatu Nação as a cultural manifestation of struggle and resistance. Being a maracatu nation means having a close relationship with the ancestry worshiped in Afro-Brazilian religions. In this sense, I use elements of the African cosmovision (OLIVEIRA, 2020) to design ways for the Zamberacatu Nation to belong to the peoples of terreiros, thus building an Egbé, an Afro-Potiguar society, as well as an imagined community (ANDERSON, 2008). Understanding that religious, cultural and political aspects are involved in this construction, this work seeks to structure itself, studying the relationships developed in the context of the manifestation, which trigger significant processes to dialogue about contemporary tradition, the construction of a black identity and the meanings of a matriarchy within a maracatu nation, considering it as a central element for the understanding and worship of ancestry. The methodological procedures are arranged in such a way that the choice of authors and methodology is related to demarcating the territory of social belonging and giving a voice to racialized intellectuals, as a strategy for writing about the black population that starts from itself in the molds of Afro-descendant research (CUNHA JUNIOR, 2013), having writing (EVARISTO, 2017) as a way of taking the place of the being who plays and writes, she is a researcher and researched. I also use the valuation of the spoken word, orality, as an element that gives birth to writing (A. HAMPATÉ BÁ, 2010) and observation linked to the perspective of being affected (FAVRET-SAADA, 1990), in a perspective of building a text that approaches experimental writing (FLEISCHER, 2018) with fluidity and that evokes horizons.
