Abstract

The analysis refers to a study of the geographical trajectories of African immigrations we call involuntary and is based on authors such as Roger Haesbaert, João Luís Fernandes, Raphael Sanzio, among others geographers and historians who conduct research on “territory” and “diaspora”. Alexandre Marcussi and Gilberto Freyre conducted studies on ethnic diversity and cultural plurality Brazilian studies involving the theme “territory,” not only as defined and delimited from power relations, but as a result of the action of a social group. Slavery left a memory which is in Brazilian cultural landscape polysemic, with a diversity that culminated in the difference of peoples, languages, religious services, eating habits and even in musicality. Or else a plurality of regions with multiple geographic landscapes. However, the distribution of content to be analyzed is split into: geographical concept of diaspora; territorial diaspora; repossession and some aspects of liberation in Redemption/Brazil.
