When considering the looks full of meanings that pass through me, as I am a quilombola, born,
raised in the quilombo and today working in a place of leadership, of a minority that seeks to
communicate with the hegemonic society in a relationship without hierarchies, I bring my speech
in this writing. By bringing my speech in this text, my memories, my belonging and experiences
are present from the beginning to the end of this dissertation. Thinking and writing like this, this
study comprises an autoethnography, which for Miranda (2022, p. 71) is understood “as a cultural
analysis elaborated through personal narrative, where it is possible to develop a critical lens in an
inside-outside praxis, of way to understand who we are in our communities.” In this context, I come
to talk about the tensions that shape new relationships in the process of new delimitation of the
territory in the context of the Extractive Reserve (RESEX) and Quilombola Territory (TQ), in
conflict scenarios that came to be established and mark this relationship, particularly considering
fishing activity and the community of Anilzinho. Joana Peres and Anilzinho are the only
quilombola communities, of the six that make up RESEX, created on June 14, 2005. Two
quilombola territories, pre-defined over time by leaders and fishermen, being joined to the same
RESEX territory, from of its creation. While the territory of the Anilzinho community was included
in its entirety in the RESEX, with regard to my quilombo village of Joana Peres, the RESEX
divided its territory, part of the community area is inside the RESEX, the other is not, which goes
beyond the surroundings of the unit.
