Abstract

This article's objective is to ruminate about the social markers of difference, giving the tonics to the comprehension of the bodies and its corporeities as enunciators and focal points of this evocation, coming from the idea of cross streets and investing in a deal a bit of a stretch of the religion marker, that is adjacent to others, as operators of a epistemological "ebó" that evoques both the agency
and the "macumba" as political acts from the notion of the "macumba". We spat "pemba" powder on the nudity of the bodies, flaking enunciations and complaints that afrograph those corporeities that have the ancestry as their focal point. We identified in our observations and constant dialogues that, in the five african origin cults studied, how the markers are seasonal and say so much about processes/moviments of recognition and visibility, while the oral literatures of these bodies find focal points of escape in the transgression of the hegemony by rescuing a political and practical way of reframing the colonial crosses that objectfy and desubjectivate these body-subjects, whose semiology finds its place in the religious emotions, that reverberate in affections, discourses and ways of existing in the world from the cosmooperation, in a local ontology that puts into play the markers when living physiologyical-political-religous from a macumba-acting body and the amefricantlanticized ontology.
