Territórios quilombolas em cidades negras no brasil: primeiras observações censitárias para as políticas públicas

Abstract

The text brings anthropological, historical, geographic and sociological approaches to quilombos and quilombolas and black cities in Brazil. From a theoretical and methodological point of view, to compose the ideas of black cities and quilombos, we used information from the IBGE Demographic Census of 2010 and 2022. The first, to compose the black cities of Bahia and, the second, for the purposes of constituting quilombola territories in Brazil, in the regions of the country, in states and municipalities with the highest rates (in absolute data) of quilombola population. In the history of the IBGE Census, this is the first time that the quilombola and quilombo population has been counted. This achievement is important forthe construction of public policies for the quilombola and black population and anti-racist policies.
