Founded in 1994, the Historical Museum of Jataí (MHJ) - Francisco Honório de Campos has played a significant role in shaping identities, memories, and narratives concerning the history of Jataí. In this regard, among the activities and productions curated by the institution, the exhibitions stand out, aimed at portraying episodes related to local and regional history, featuring individuals, events and narratives. We understand that this exercise of representing the past is not neutral. On the contrary, it involves cutting, selecting, including, and excluding elements, thus creating memories and forgetfulness. These memories may undergo fluctuations depending on the moment they are invoked (Pollak, 1992). Therefore, in this master’s thesis, we aim to analyze the construction of memories about the black population in two exhibitions produced and displayed at the MHJ: “Jatahy: stories to tell” (1995-2015) and “Clube 13 de Maio and black people in the history of Jataí” (2019). We analyze these exhibitions, seeking to understand the production of memories, identities, absences or silences regarding the presence and actions of black men and women from Jataí, given that, despite their presence in the territory since the occupation process and, occasional numerical superiority, they are scarcely portrayed in regional/local narratives. To this end, we surveyed the documentary, photographic and textual collection of exhibitions held between 1994 and 2019. Attention was also given to the museological plan. The theoretical and methodological framework required an interdisciplinary dialogue between the fields of History and Museology. Among the authors considered in this study are: Cunha (2006); Chagas (2011); Woodward (2009); Gomes (2017); Almeida (2021); Nora (1993); Pollak (1992); Silva (2011); Carmo (2021); Mello (2002) and França (1995).
