É uma experiência dos pobres... : trajetórias de trabalhadores negros na cidade de Itumbiara-GO (1980-2010)

Abstract

This study attempts to realize the movement of black workers among the various social practices that they have developed in the city of Itumbiara-GO since 1980. I tried here to take an approach that doesn‟t isolate these people, but to show how they seek to assert their interests, values, and thus put strain on ways to live in/the city, in the relationship maintained with other social groups. I understand that is in this movement of subject that the city is being formed. I also aimed to question images and project that have been developed in recent decades and which set Itumbiara at the idea of achieved city , city of progress , city for all . In this way, the goal was to place these perspectives in the same historical process that they developed within disputes, consensus, negotiations and contradictions, looking not just stay on the simple challenge of prospects which are thought as unique. Closely monitor how these black workers live this/in this city in terms of unequal conditions and how they deal with a common field of possibilities that establish in society, contributed much to the disclosure of individuals living their culture not only as a tradition and/or folklore, but as a way of life and way to fight.
