This work presents a debate on the History and Memory of the Movement for the Liberation of Araguaia-MLPA prisoners, when in 1981, two French priests and thirteen squatters were arrested in the town of São Geraldo do Araguaia, which was part of the municipality of Xinguara in the State of Pará. With this arrest and subsequent transfer to the capital Belém; religious, lay people, student movement, activists of left-wing political parties such as PT and PC do B, as well as youth pastoral groups, members of various social movement groups. At this juncture, a vigorous solidarity network is established with national and international connections, which carry out various activities in Belém and the Araguaia Pará region, with the aim of demanding that the Brazilian military government release the so-called Prisoners of Araguaia. I also affirm that during the development of the movement, what I call a Collective Identity of the MLPA was created among some of its militants, a condition clearly noticeable in the reports collected through the Oral History method, and made available in fragments of the thesis writing, as in the Video-Memory: MLPA - 40 years of History, which I present here as an important source of research, as well as teaching about the History of the Present Time in the Amazon.
