Banzeirar: making ribeirinhar certain practices supposed as care

Abstract

In this article, inspired by Conceição Evaristo’s footsteps, we rehearse a “Escrevivência”. Based on riverine, black and indigenous epistemologies, we seek to problematize the practices of care present in the area of psychology that have been associated with repressive, controlling and punitive logics - see the context in which it was regulated in Brazil. To make this discussion, we begin with the understanding that racism is structuring in the constitution of society and, therefore, it must be at the center of our discussions. Therefore, we rehearsed, in this work, to think of allied care practices that value the protagonisms/protagonists of the surviving residents of the Araguaia guerrillas, of riverine, black and indigenous people. Therefore, through our writing, we bet on actions that are committed to localized ways of existing and that have as protagonists the people for whom these policies are thought, starting from the notions of the world they want to build. We pursue with such actions to have the indigenous, black, Afro-indigenous and ribeirinhas bodies/visions in the process of thinking and actualizing practices aimed at the care of the population.
