Sinopse do Episódio "Marmelada from Quilombo Mesquita: Tradition, Culture, and Land Rights"

In this episode, we dive into the rich history and cultural heritage of Quilombo Mesquita, located in Cidade Ocidental, Goiás. The discussion centers around the centuries-old tradition of artisanal marmelada production—a quince-based sweet introduced to the region by the Portuguese in the 18th century. Marmelada is more than just a treat; it is a key part of Quilombo Mesquita’s identity, passed down through generations and serving as an essential source of income for the community. We also explore the Quilombo’s ongoing struggle for land rights, including challenges such as real estate speculation and land area reductions proposed by the National Institute for Colonization and Agrarian Reform (Incra). Beyond marmelada, Quilombo Mesquita preserves vibrant cultural traditions, including the Marmelo Festival, the Folia de Nossa Senhora da Abadia, and the Catira dance. Join us as we celebrate the resilience and cultural wealth of this remarkable community.
