SUMMARY:

While penal abolitionism is considered “utopia”, punitive practices continue to imprison, in several ways and in large scale (mass incarceration), black bodies like mine, under the title of (a) “justice” that, given its function of legitimate the defense of whiteness, it is incapable of solving the problems it has created and which guarantee its supremacy, based on legal colonialism. Indispensable for the system of racial injustice, prison, even in its known “unconstitutional state of affairs”, guarantees public security that naturalizes black death, being the expression of the unmodifiable colonial nature of a society conceived as a dehumanizing and segregationist territory. As an institution designed to arrest “evil” (especially those labeled as such) in their proper place (where all punishment is allowed and required), prison (i)logic reverberates the Christian ideology that makes prison the concrete translation of (white) hell whose subsistence stems from demonizing dogmas. Religious racism is, therefore, the basis of the principle of good and evil that (retro)feeds criminal law and the relationship between rights and duties of the Social Contract that orders the “modern State” and it humanitarian discourses. Pushing whiteness and all its monochromatic pacts into the middle of the anti-racist circle, this thesis, converging the insurgent (dis)order with the ancestral cries for freedom, proves that utopia is to continue believing that prison and criminal law can, someday, fulfill the promise to “do justice” (especially in racial terms) and save us from whiteness. It is prison as a “fair penalty” that ensures the legality of the multiple manifestations of structural genocide, inherent to the Racial Contract composed of several anti-black contracts, with necropolitics being the penal clause executed daily. It is by unmasking the punitive rage, which ensures the effectiveness of the Brazilian racial control system, with the racial depoliticization of the second largest black population in the world, that the crossroads formed by Afro-Brazilian criminology and Quilombist penal abolitionism, verse and reverse of the same project (dis)orderly guided by Exu, opens up paths of responsability on the complementarity between “good” and “evil”, freeing the dehumanized humanities from white (in)formal prisons. In this sense, the exuneutics, praxis linked in the transgressive writing, points to the abolition of prisons by marginality, carving out strategies of survival by following the steps and the (anti)juridical mandingas of Zé Pelintra, who reconceptualizes the black danger. Embodying the Quilombist tactic and transiting between worlds, circles, (counter)theories and practices that confess the “bankruptcy” of the prison, the black abolitionist project invades and occupies “restorative circles” to replace them with the circularity of an Afrodiasporic Restorative Justice, without getting lost in performative senses, to implode the racist foundational architecture of our society and its colonial(izing) culture. In this subversive movement, I rescue and (re)empower the rights that founded and sustained the Black Republic of Palmares, a unique model of a Plurinational Pluriversal Democratic State, structured on communitarianism, equality, freedom, non-otherification and good-live for the whole community, fundamental principles of the Quilombist Contract, constituent of the Afro-diasporic justice system that must be (re)constituted as a political project of an ancestral future.
