The initiation into Candomblé during slavery is a little-told story, but essential to understanding the resilience of Afro-Brazilian culture. Enslaved Africans in Brazil faced immense challenges to keep their religious traditions alive, and initiation was one of the most critical moments in this preservation. Even in the face of restrictions imposed by slave owners and religious repression, initiation rituals continued, often performed secretly and protected by Catholic brotherhoods.
In this video, we delve into the history of the first terreiros (Candomblé temples), the adaptation of initiation rites, and the fundamental role of women in the sustainability of sacred spaces. How did Candomblé survive the colonial period? How did initiates manage to fulfill their precepts in such a hostile environment? Discover this story of struggle, faith, and resistance now!
