The article analyzes the representation of Black people in the context of the celebrations of the
abolicionism in Belém. The text discusses the parties of abolitionism as a discourse of charity around
the conception of freedom in the decade of abolition and the representation of the Negro as "good
captive", a worker idealized by the slaver society. The feasts were celebrated as a ritual of "baptism of
freedom" and an ideal moment of relating freedom as a festive action of benevolent character, moment
of harmony and fraternization. |
