Disputa por Imaginários no Século XXI: A Ascensão da Produção Cultural Negra nas Mídias Digitais

Abstract

The current article aims to circumscribe the ascending movement – specially seen in the last few years – of the pledge for space and visibility of black intellectual production, mainly in the artistic and philosophical fields. With that in mind, there has been made an analysis of the contribution and repercussion of black writer’s pieces in the traditional media within the country, in order to compare the obtained results to its acquisition by the intellectuals, which nowadays occupies that lieu in the digital media. The technological advance and the rise of the flux of information have been promoted in an unprecedented way through the training and active presence of an interested audience, which at its turn, shed light to the racial issue via propagation of works from thinkers and artists engaged with these new media (these later opened to a much larger public and therefore from multiple points of views). In this sense, the triad of a black writer, with a work grounded in the identitary’s dilemma altogether with the reader-producer movement, gains terrain and through this projection it grows. The respective phenomenon will be contemplated up from theoretical arguments developed by Martino (2014), Garcez (2013) und Gomes (2005). Linked to the analysis of the black author’s activities today, which takes place in Brazil and in the digital means, we lay our attention to the voices of Conceicao Evaristo, Djamila Ribeiro and Lazaro Ramos.
