Instigated by the intelligible and sensitive religious knowledge of traditional religions and the various forms of spiritual belonging that escape the formal religious structure, but connect the human being with what he calls sacred, we seek in this dossier to build a map of the representations that pass through their images, their performances that reveal rituals and sacred belongings.The expressive forms gain different nuances in religious spaces, in view of certain restrictions, which means that the researcher has to resort to different aesthetic and research strategies to compose his universe imagetic and performative. & nbsp; The symbolic universe of religious rituals, the digressions between religion and politics, the expressions of decoloniality, the body given to devotion and other analyzes involving discussions about sensitive expressions through images, performances, poetry etc., will be well welcome.

"Some young black people are already entering university, that's the big change, but overall the situation of the black population is largely marginalization. They are underrepresented in all sectors of national life," he said: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDJWJQhC2ms

Deserved tribute to Professor Kabengele Munanga, who received this 32nd. RBA
the Roquette Pinto medal. His speech on receiving the award is an evident demonstration
its trajectory, its anti-racist struggle and how much that struggle is still necessary, until
even in an association such as ABA and in academic circles in general.
Established in 2003, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the 1st RBA, the Roquette Pinto medal is the
most important distinction granted to people, whose trajectory and work have
made significant contributions to the various dimensions in Anthropology.

Congratulations Kabê !!!
