The study sought to analyze the performance of the Memorial of the Peasant Leagues in memory preservation and promotion of human rights. We used literature sources, electronic sites, desk research and fieldwork with the oral history methodology, which provided a further insight into what this Memorial represents in the lives of its creators, current members and residents of the Barra de Antas Community. It was done an outline of the economic, social and cultural human rights birth, which globally were born late regarding to the civil rights. It was also treated the policy directed to the Rights of Memory and Truth, that was strengthened by the approval of the National Human Rights Program (NHRP-3) and creation of the National Commission for Truth, which has been trying to repair the suffering caused to the victims of the civil-military regime with the clarification of the facts that prove Human Rights violation by political motivation. We conducted a historical investigation about the origin of the Peasant Leagues in Brazilian northeast. The expansion, actions and achievements of the Ingenuity Galileia's Leagues, from Pernambuco and Sapé, Paraíba, were analyzed until the Civil-Military Coup of 1964 when they were eliminated. The history of the Memorial of the Peasant Leagues was reconstructed since 2006 up to the current days, particularly based on testimonials of people who attended his birth and who act in their activities. It was found that the Memorial of the Peasant Leagues is not only a memory space or historical heritage, but a space of identity formation, politics and struggle for human rights especially in Barra de Antas. It was found that violence is still strong in the Brazilian countryside and despite progress there are obstacles to the realization of Agrarian Reform in Brazil. Although democratic, the Federal Constitution is not present in its fullness in the daily lives of all Brazilians, particularly those who live in the countryside.
