Our research aims to analyze the construction of Afro-Brazilian memory in manifestation of Tambores Mirins which is developed in Pátio do Terço, in Recife. To develop our investigation we used a semi-structured research with 14 (fourteen) children s Maracatu leaders that participated of the event, of these, 01 (one) is from school, 04 (four) are from NGOs, 04 (four) are from Afro-Brazilian religion, and 05 (four) are from leaders who are responsible for the organization of the event. We also based our research in the participant observation of the parade, in the organization of Tambores Mirins in 2011 and 2012, and bibliographic researches. Our theoretical framework was based, mainly, on the concept of the collective memory of Maurice Halbwachs, who believes it is a social process of reconstruction of the past, experienced by a particular group, where memories have the need to be supported by an affective community, we cannot remember by ourselves. Also, the anthropological concept of Geertz was important as well, in which reflects the relationship between culture and religion, and Roger Bastide, with the sociology of religion, who help us to understand how African religions have reacted to the different transformations caused by the black diaspora. From the result of the research, we have made the analysis to identify how does the process of as the Afro-Brazilian memory occurs through strategies used by leaders with children and adolescents. We identified, with the result of our research, that the strategies used by the leaderships of Tambores Mirins contribute to the construction of Afro-Brazilian s memory to keep alive a cultural tradition, inherited by the ancestors, through the lucidity of Maracatu.
