In this thesis of master I attemp to narrate the field experience in the rural black communities of the northeast of the state of Goiás, bringing interlocutions on raciality, stereotypes and community recognition. The research is based on recent events (since 1980) that made the group be characterized as a quilombo. I understand the process of identification as a series of discursive events that are influencing and creating new ways of operating the local ethnic identity. I see that the recent certification establishes collective articulations that have in one of the most spare elements, the concern of the interlocutors with community images. I highlight the dialogues that are associated with facing a series of stereotypes. Starting from the discontent raised by the inhabitants with whom I could talk, (who even challenged some of the more vulgar images of the quilombo) I deal with the relation between the imagination of alterity and the theme of identity representation. And the interest in the issue became more evident due to the constant local complaints about the history of discrimination based on the dark skin brand. Almost all the conversations have led one to believe that, with the process of recognition, there has also been a re-signification of materials linked to black ancestry: new understandings of the past of oppression, resistances to colonial slavery and the historically discrimination. This is an ethnographic account of the construction of subjects and social history that brings mythical, historical and intercultural elements, linked to self-identification, to present some of the layers of senses of the field experience lived in the ethnic borders of Kalunga communities.
