THE DISCOURSE OF THE QUILOMBOLAS OF THE SERTÃO DAS GERAIS

Abstract

This article describes the discursive manifestations uttered by members of quilombola communities, understood in this research as traditional communities whose members are now recognized as descendants of enslaved blacks. We investigated the discourses of the quilombola members that revealed the constitution of identities, specifically, of the Orion camp belonging to the Territory of Brejo dos Crioulos. We based the investigation on the Theory of Analysis of the French Discourse, and the analysis of the data confirmed that there are several identities that constitute the narratives investigated.
