Quilombo Tribes and Environmental Racism
WHO?
Quilombo tribes are spread all over the 26 States of the Federation and are more than 6.300 communities
MAIN CHARACTERISTICS:
A lifestyle in symbiosis with the nature, the matriarch society, the cultural legacy.
THE THREAT:
Environmental racism: what is it? it is a form of discrimination that leads to the eviction of the minorities from thir mother lands, obliging them to live in dangerous and polluted areas.
Selection of the recipients
STEP 1
«I am here and to get me to leave they will have to kill me… i will not abandon my own home.» - the Matriarch
This field is poorly strenghtened and usually stops after primary school.
INFRASTRUCTURES
STUDY OF THEIR NEEDS
STEP 2
EDUCATION
There is an evident gap between the abandoned communiyy and the industrialized part.
EMPLOYMENT
This area has a large percentage of unemployment and the only source of livelihood is fishing .
HEALTHCARE:
Health conditions are put at risk by constant exposure to industrialization process.
the communities lack of infrastructure, seeming abandoned, and presenting different problems as the lack of a proper system of garbage collection.
No proper education
according the different data collected, most of the members of the community do not complete their cycle of studies, leading to a lack of proper education.

Lack of infrastructure

Racism
Quilombolas, as already mentioned, are descendant of African slaves, therefore they are dark skinned and suffer from racism by the Brazilian State itself.

Step three
Environmental racism
consists of the eviction of the Quilombolas from their countries, being then obliged to live in polluted areas.
01
No proper healthcare
different diseases are developing among the members of the community, in addition to the lack of structures dedicated to help them.
02
Lack of work
because of the pollution, it is now harder living from only agricolture and fishing, which are the main occupations in the community, leading to an high tax of poverty.
03
Quilombo tribes face multiple problems and needs.
Problems
Art. 68. "Aos remanescentes das comunidades dos quilombos que estejam ocupando suas terras é reconhecida a propriedade definitiva, devendo o Estado emitir-lhes os títulos respectivos."
Legally, Quilombolas are protected by the 1988 Federal Constitution, at the art.68 (ADCT), which gives them the right to collective property in their territories. It should also lead to access to social and fundamental rights as the right to healthcare and education.
Legal problem
Help economically the community
with the implementation of art.68 of the Constitution, and thehelp of the UN and the government of Brazil, we could reach the following SDG:
Provide education to the community
Ensure a system of healthcare for the well-being of the community
Implement food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agricolture.
