O Quinto Elemento do Hip Hop: o percurso dos manos do Bairro Mário Quintana em Porto Alegre

Abstract

This dissertation proposes to focus on the Hip Hop Movement in Porto Alegre / RS from the neighborhood Mário Quintana and the movement of the activists of the neighborhood through the city, approaching it from the studies of black diasporas. The creation of the Hip Hop Permanent Forum in Porto Alegre resulted from the movement's need to participate in the formulation and implementation of specific public policies aimed at promoting racial equality, income generation, education, culture, selfassertion, among other sociopolitical demands. Such policies contradict the logic of the peripherization of the black and poor population and of structural racism. Starting from the Hip Hop Movement of the Mário Quintana Neighborhood, the purpose of this work is to accompany the movement's activists in their relationship with the neighborhood, the territories in which they reside and act, the events they build in the neighborhood and with groups and collectives from other districts of the city and the State of RS. Analyzing, from this perspective, the mobility of these activists in the neighborhood of Mário Quintana, and to other parts of the city, and the relation with the construction of public policies for the neighborhood, the city and the Hip Hop movement
