Title: Corpo, gênero e colonialidade: fabulações travesti sobre existir a partir dos projetos musicais de Linn da Quebrada (2017-2021) Abstract: The singer and actress Lina Pereira, known as Linn da Quebrada, released between 2017 and 2021 the music videos blasFêmea and Oração, as well as the albums Pajubá and Trava Línguas. This study aims to examine how the artist expresses, through her audiovisual and musical productions, her process of subjectivation as a travesti body. The research is guided by the following questions: What do the desires Linn sings about reveal about her individual and collective experience? How does the artist articulate verbal and musical language in her productions in relation to her narrative? How do these productions engage with the context of tension between progressive and conservative agendas? How does the incorporation of religiosity as a narrative arc contribute to the artist’s musical performance? Therefore, poetic-verbal and musical parameters are examined in order to identify the uses of language in these works. Drawing on decolonial perspectives and queer studies, the study articulates themes of gender, sexuality, travestility, and the use of music as a means of expression

Title: Itaú e o (esque)cimento: mineração, memória e justiça em Itaú de Minas-MG (2004-2019) Abstract: This Environmental History study traces the impacts of a mining company while simultaneously uncovering the mysteries surrounding the official memory constructed about it. The cement factory located in Itaú de Minas, Minas Gerais, has exploited the region since 1939, initially under the name Companhia de Cimento Portland Itaú and, since 1977, as Votorantim Cimentos. This enterprise overrides laws through economic and political power, exerting strong influence over regulatory institutions. The history of the factory with the Public Prosecutor’s Office, due to the environmental damage it causes, will demonstrate this: it pays small fines and obtains a “blank check” to pollute. In 2004, a neighboring resident reported the pollution of the Córrego do Ferro and the air. In 2006, another case began, related to the spilling of mud from the hydroelectric dam gates into the São João River. Later, in 2013, another case was initiated due to emissions of pollutants above the limits permitted by law. At the intersection of these environmental cases—which extended until 2019—with newspapers, photographs, reports, academic and literary texts, and even calendars, this text evokes experiences that reveal different memories and provides a new perspective for telling the history of Itaú de Minas and of the cement factory.

Title: Nas páginas da imprensa sindical: as dinâmicas de comunicação do Jornal do Metalúrgico — São José dos Campos (1981–1992) Abstract: The context of national policies from the rupture with the Business-Military Dictatorship to the unfolding of the first popular election, which culminated in the impeachment of the then-president, was marked by social and political tensions that directly interfered in the daily lives of Brazilian workers. Within this scenario, this study proposes an analysis of history through the press, observing workers' demands in the pages of the Jornal do Metalúrgico from 1981 to 1992—the official communication channel of the Metalworkers' Union of São José dos Campos and Region (SMSJC) — and a history of the press, focusing on the internal workings of this labor newspaper within its production context. Therefore, based on the analysis of the Jornal do Metalúrgico, the research seeks to capture the group's grievances, considering existing agreements and dissonances, and how these interactions were reported. In this regard, the objective is to understand how the newspaper was produced as a vital communication tool between the union and the workers, and how workers' experiences were present in its pages, contributing to the historiography of the worlds of labor. It is demonstrated that the periodical functioned as a strategic space for mediation between factory experiences, political disputes, and the construction of collective meanings, configuring itself as a central element for understanding the combative unionism of the era. Ultimately, the Jornal do Metalúrgico added density and complexity to the working-class experience, situating collective action in the dialogue between the local and the national, while providing critical tools for understanding the democratic transition and the emergence of neoliberal policies that profoundly impacted the world of labor in Brazil.

Title: Rock de combate: a música do grupo The Clash como objeto de estudo em sala de aula no ensino médio (décadas de 1970 e 1980) Abstract: This work, having as a reference the premises and skills of the National Common Curricular Base, addresses the use of the songs of the English punk band The Clash as a tool to improve and update methodologies for teaching History in High School. The proposal includes the use of podcasts as an innovative pedagogical resource, enabling the creation of content by students themselves, which favors engagement and the development of communicative, digital and critical skills. Through this strategy, themes from the history of the present, such as xenophobia, immigration, racism, as well as economic and social problems, are discussed through the band's lyrics and melodies, encouraging critical thinking and providing a space for debate of contemporary concerns brought by students. The interdisciplinarity between History and the English Language also stands out in this process, promoting broader and more contextualized learning.
