Abstract
Storytelling in traditional communities is passed on through orality from one generation to the next, connecting the past with the present by recalling the latent memory of their ancestors. It is a magical and playful moment, told and narrated during the bean threshing, awakening the awareness of aspects related to the care for life and the environment, while establishing the feelings of collectivity, union, and collective organization, making these moments a process of struggle and resistance to keep their traditions alive. Thus, the present study aims to analyze how the ancestral knowledge perpetuated in storytelling contributes to the processes of struggle and resistance of the sociocultural identity of the quilomba community Sítio Veiga, in Quixadá, Ceará. To this end, the production of this article had as its methodological apparatus the exploratory-descriptive typology with a qualitative approach making use of semi-structured interviews whose guiding modality was ethnographic and participant observation, which are fundamental methods for a greater approximation and interaction with the social subjects of the research.The results of this study point to the relevance of these social subjects narrating their stories from their own point of view, placing themselves as the protagonists of their stories, with this place of speech permeated by struggle and resistance, forming a web of meanings that unites them in favor of social organization and by the stories narrated from one generation to the next.
