Abstract

The indigenous performance sung by Meriná (Vovó Bernaldina), who lived in Roraima,
in its peculiarities and artistic, linguistic and cultural complexities, is consistent with that of many Macuxi women who still sing songs born in time immemorial, opening paths and reinforcing the ancestral memory in resistance movements, reterritorialization and connection with nature. We used qualitative methodology using a variety of media, such as videos, photographs and books, in addition to bibliographical research with the book Cantos e Encantos Meriná Eremukon (2019). Our theoretical reflections start from the works of Pedro and Fiorotti (2019), and Silva and Fiorotti (2018), expanding to Fiorotti (2021), Fonseca (2016), Bhabha (2003), and Graúna (2013).
