Known as "Land of Light" because of your exemplary process of premature abolition, the state of Ceará, just as the whole Brazil, has a gap and a gigantic debt with brazilian blacks and africans that arrived enslaved here. Besides the admission of black people at the public universities, is necessary the research incentive into that population, in their existence and resistance methods during the years, essentially from their cultural aspects. This work aim was about cultural landscapes, especially black festivities landscapes, in the state of Ceará, dealing with festivals of distinct locations and dates. These festivities happened mainly in Fortaleza during the last decades of the XIX Century and in two rural black communities - Dança de São Gonçalo at Sítio Veiga, Quixadá, and Festa de Nossa Senhora de Nazaré, at Nazaré, Itapipoca. After centuries of work and officially reaching freedom from a law without rights warranties, the black population in Brazil saw herself excluded and underestimated for a long time. These denial processes and institutionalized extermination, which exists until today, had origin at some movements that happened mostly among the end of the XIX Century and first decades of the XX Century, since cultural modernists movements from Europe as model even the implemented racial public politics starting from multiple ways in national territory. Built as an autobiogeography, this work, is like an counscious encounter with a black culture reinvented and alive, also being a calling for reflections and actions by ethnic-racial relations, the right to look, the landscape, the image, memory and consequently a becoming. Elaborated by written and visual narratives is also an attempt to open up new ways of doing Geography, using known tools, subversively as so many blacks did before, making possible my existence and the existence of this work.
