The initiative received a special video recording produced by Sesc São Paulo, available at this link: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DNTmRjfMi4m/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Held in the Bela Vista district, in the Bixiga territory, the walk proposes an immersion in the territory based on its Afro-religious memory, connecting temporalities at points such as the Saracura/Vai-Vai Archaeological Site and the Ilê Asé Iyá Osun temple, founded over 40 years ago.

The recording with the coordinator of LISA and director of “São Palco - Cidade Afropolitana”, Rose Satiko Hikiji, the protagonist Shambuyi Wetu and the editor Ricardo Dionísio, on the podcast Intérpretes do Brasil Contemporâneo was featured in Folha de S. Paulo.

The article highlights the power of ethnographic films in transmitting knowledge and discusses the work of African artists who arrive in Brazil “with their stories, knowledge and creative practices”, face barriers and “create stages of resistance”.

The podcast Intérpretes do Brasil Contemporâneo is a production of the School of Philosophy, Letters and Human Sciences (FFLCH) at USP. Coordinated by Júlio César Suzuki, a professor in the Geography department, the program is the result of an agreement between the School and the newspaper Folha de S. Paulo.

The recording with anthropologist Sylvia Caiuby Novaes, on the podcast Intérpretes do Brasil Contemporâneo, was featured in Folha de S.Paulo! 

In the article, Sylvia is recognized for her sensitivity and depth when talking about the role of the gaze in understanding images, a central theme of the conversation in the podcast.

With a career marked by listening, attention and visual criticism, Sylvia invites the public to reflect on how we see the world — especially in times of excess images and superficial readings.
