Art of Resistance

Arte Da Resistência is a story of maternal leadership told through Rejane Rodrigues, a Quilombola from Quilombo Quingoma. Rejane leads through an inspiration from her ancestry, her mother, Dona Raquel, and her 8-year-old daughter, Raquel Rodrigues. The title, Arte Da Resistência, pays homage to the Quingoma ancestors who established their quilombo as a beacon of democracy and equality— a place where African people remain resilient, reclaim their freedom, celebrate their heritage and survive.
