This dissertation presents an ethnographic research in the quilombola community of Morrinhos, which I reside in and uses qualitative information about our life forms before the arrival of eucalyptus monoculture in our region. I take advantage of the opportunity, to be able to talk a little about my history, as a woman, black, quilombola and affected, as well as, I see more properly understood the process of taking the territory of my community by the eucalyptus company, and as forms of resistance people my quilombola in relation to this process, which has lasted for more than 40 years. I take the ethnographic method for dialogical construction of data, description and analysis of the way of life (social, cultural, economic, symbolic and religious) relating the following axes: quilombola identity; traditional knowledge invested in the territory; territorialization process, involving the loss of occupied traditional lands, mainly from the concession of the lands under lending by the State of Minas Gerais to the eucalyptus plantation company; and forms of sociability, involving our ties of kinship, compadrio and our forms of political organization. These structuring axes of work were matured, both theoretically and methodologically, in the course of my training (Master in Anthropology) and allowed me to demonstrate, in a tacit or peremptory way, how I and my people have resisted and been resilient, even with all the adversities and the losses that have occurred in the last few decades, thus maintaining our own way of being and living.
