management, autonomy, network and struggle of the Quilombo Pesqueiro in the face of the SARS Cov-2 pandemic

Abstract

Brazil had reached about 168,141 thousand victims of the Sars Cov-2 pandemic on the date of this interview, which took place in November 2020. After a year of its elaboration, sadly, there are about 600 thousand deaths, with the Black population, Indigenous peoples and traditional communities being the most vulnerable and victimized groups compared to white groups. For entities and organizations in defense of social, environmental and territorial rights, data from the Sars Cov-2 pandemic point to the operation of genocide devices. In this sense, the intention of the interview that follows is to expand the experiences of confrontation presented by Elionice Conceição Sacramento and Danilo Sodré Teixeira dos Santos from the Quilombola and Pesqueira Conceição de Salinas Community, located in the state of Bahia. Once this has been accomplished, the second plea seeks to assert that the advance of capitalist enterprises over traditional territories in full health disaster originating from structural racism.
