Abstract

This paper aims to highlight environmental racism in urban quilombola communities, being more specific in the urban quilombo of the Silva Family, a quilombo that has its protected area in an elite neighborhood of Porto Alegre-RS. As methodology was analyzed common procedure No. 5051569-21.2015.4.04.7100 / RS, last judicial battle against the Silva Family, in early 2019, favoring the legitimacy of the territorial markings of the Silva Family. This paper is divided into four chapters, which attempts to highlight that historically the black population lives with the inequalities of environmental damage, and is much more vulnerable to the worst environmental conditions in existence. The results obtained in this work highlight that even after the demarcation of the quilombola territory, these communities still stand and resist the pressures and harassment of the furniture speculation and its eugenicist thinking in relation to individuals of negroid phenotype, which tries in several ways to dehumanize these communities to they will be suffocated by the large buildings.
