This text summarizes part of the results of the research I have been developing since 2018 and focuses on discussions regarding women's leadership in the evangelical church Assembly of God. The institution, founded in 1911, in Belém do Pará, over the years spread to other states outside the Amazon of Pará and is currently present in all Brazilian states. Starting from a colonialist bias, the church built its hierarchy on the sacralization of gender inequality, reserving subservient roles for women, especially black women, and not allowing them to ascend in the ecclesiastical hierarchy. This factor endorses the androcentric stance of the church which, in its 110 years of founding, never consecrated women to positions of ecclesiastical leadership, even though it had a woman as a pioneer in the founding of the church and a majority black female audience. Seeking to develop writing skills, as proposed by Conceição Evaristo, I defined as an “ethnographic research field” the Christian community of which I am a “deviant member”, whose headquarters are in Boa Esperança, in the rural area of the municipality of Santarém, in the west of Pará. More specifically, the work developed through dialogue between the researcher and the members of the Prayer Circle. In short, this text is about how the structures of oppression that act on women's bodies and their subjectivities operate within the church.

História na Beirada: memórias de quilombolas do Caldeirão
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-11-13) CASTRO, Laiane Katrine da Silva; ACEVEDO MARIN, Rosa Elizabeth; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0087693866786684; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7509-3884
Memory is a central element in the study of social groups, connecting daily life to the historical past of these communities. This dissertation adopts a decolonial and counter-hegemonic approach, prioritizing the voices of the elders of the Quilombola Community of Caldeirão, in Salvaterra, Pará, while linking these narratives to an analysis of the historical and contemporary transformations of the territory. It discusses the colonial process on Marajó Island, marked by the imposition of large estates, the land appropriation by religious missions, and the presence of Africans and their resistance. This colonial context is essential for understanding the identity dynamics of Caldeirão, which preserves insurgent cultural practices in opposition to the enduring colonial legacies. Through memories and oral tradition, the research seeks to understand the trajectories and expressions of local identities, valuing lived experiences as legitimate forms of knowledge. As a quilombola community fighting for the recognition of its land rights, memory plays an essential role in (re)constructing identity, renewing itself without breaking its roots. The methodology — participant observation, oral history, and interviews — enabled immersion in the community's daily life and the listening to voices sidelined by official history, revealing local knowledge and multiple temporalities that shape community life. Thus, memory is valued as a living practice of transformation and resistance, offering a panorama that integrates ancestral narratives, the impact of colonialism on Marajó, and the contemporary challenges faced by the Quilombola Community of Caldeirão
