This research presents as its theme the "Amazonian Black Experiences: Communicative Interpretations of young black men and women from Belém do Pará", through the stories of a group of young black men and women from different contexts sheltered in the urban Amazon of Belém. In this sense, the research has in its centrality the communicative processes of these young men and women in order to reflect on their existence and resistance in the spaces occupied by them. The guiding question of the research was: How are the communicative processes of a group of young black men and women in relation to their experiences and racial resistance in the urban Amazonian space of Belém do Pará? Through the pathway here called "(Afro)centered on subjects" the Afrocentricity Theory (ASANTE, 2009) was used along with the research methods of Grada Kilomba (2019) in order to reach, theoretically and methodologically, the researched realities. Through 06 (six) reports of experiences, it was possible to understand the existence of two central problems in the communicative processes addressed in relation to raciality in the urban and Amzonian contexto of the city: one at the local level, having the morenity listed to the people and the city of Belém do Pará having been constructed and used as a point of annihilation and distancing from a historical and social black heritage (CONRADO; CAMPELO; RIBEIRO, 2015; ALVES SARRAF, 2019), and one at the national level, where the division by "color" or "race" of the IBGE generates controversial understandings, and even no accessible understanding, leading to the questioning of how valid it would be to define oneself racially based on the guidelines of the census agency. Additionally, the Internet appears, in the reports, as an important permeating the experiences of the interlocutors. Thus, the communicative relations of the group researched start impacted by social and symbolic constructions based on difference, prejudice, violence, inequality, and social and spatial hateful segregation (SODRÉ, 2019; 2020), however, it was possible to verify that a large part of the stories and their personal lives advances in the movement of liberation of consciences and agency of self (ASANTE, 2009; MAZAMA, 2009), demonstrating that each black person presents their own rhythm and will in breaking with the limiting and racist molds of thought that have driven/impelled the dynamics of the Belenian and Brazilian Amazonian society.
