Abstract
The following article presents data and reflections on the violence against Afro-Brazilian religions some Rio de Janeiro favelas after the vertiginous growth of denominated (neo) Pentecostal churches. There are records of terreiros suffering attacks and sanctions from drug traffickers, pastors and residents in the name of Jesus since the late 1980s. In 2006, the drug trafficking leader most of the Governor Island favelas, the northern area of Rio de Janeiro, ordered the closure of all the terreiros the areas where it operated. In contrast, the terreiros remain some areas. In the Serrinha favela, located the Madureira neighborhood, the situation is also multifaceted. It seeks to understand the multiple forms of approach, conflict and negotiation between the different actors who share the daily life of these places.
