The study aims to understand the ways of facing Covid-19 disclosed in APIB’s profile, identify the themes disseminated in the page and reflect on communication as a strategic space for political articulation of subordinate groups. To understand the net-activist practices of indigenous peoples in Brazil, we will use the theoretical contributions of Di Felice (2012, 2013, 2017, 2018) on net-activism and Pereira (2007, 2017). The imaginary as atmosphere, collective expression and reflection of the group where the individual is inserted (MAFFESOLI 2001, 2006, 2020), the technologies of the imaginary (SILVA, 2020) are articulated as notions to understand the role of APIB in the pandemic period. As we investigate an ongoing phenomenon, the research was conducted with the methodological support of the Case Study (YIN, 2003), which proposes a combination of methods and techniques. Thus, we conducted semi-structured interviews, bibliographic research and analysis of 328 publications related to the pandemic from April to June 2020 using the Content Analysis methods proposed by Bardin (2011). The analysis of the publications is divided into three categories, dedicated to exploring the origin of the publications, the characteristics of the publications and the themes of the publications. Investigating the origin of the publications, of the 328, 52 % are authored by APIB and the remaining 48 % are from other profiles, including indigenous organizations, indigenous partners and environmentalists, evidencing a network of contacts and circular strengthening of these organizations. As characteristics, we listed the publications with informative character and those that call followers to actions, considering, based on Di Felice's contributions, that information is part of the mobilizing strategy. In the investigated period, the disclosure was the dominant characteristic, informing about prevention, disclosure of actions to combat the advance of the disease, events, and accountability. In the themes, APIB presented 7 main themes in this time period, with emphasis on the publications on Confronting Covid-19, and the dissemination of data in case bulletins. The content released by APIB from April 22 to June 22, 2020 also presents the diversity of the indigenous peoples of Brazil, evidenced by information in images and captions that highlight the peoples. Publications were also made in indigenous languages, influencing the current imaginary, taken by stereotypes and a generic vision of the indigenous peoples.

This dynamic of qualifying content consumers primarily acts against the spread of false information that threatens democracy. We understand this concept as the process of teaching about the media and how it works, aiming to promote students' critical and creative thinking regarding what is consumed and produced in this environment. From this perspective, the general objective of this dissertation is to understand how the inclusion of a Communication professional in the daily routine of the Dionísio Bentes de Carvalho School, in Rondon do Pará/PA, can support the implementation of activities focused on the competencies and skills recommended by the Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC – National Common Curricular Base). The method adopted for the analytical development of this study is action research, based on the guidelines of Thiollent (2011). We chose this methodology because we consider it the most appropriate in the context of Media Education, based on the following hypotheses: (H1) The Dionísio Bentes de Carvalho School is unable to effectively address and develop the media competencies and skills established in the BNCC due to the lack of specific teacher training and technological resources; (H2) Ongoing media education activities led by a communication professional support the development of students’ critical thinking skills. The theoretical approach focuses on the intersection between Communication and Education, engaging with concepts such as Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed (1987), Dewey Pragmatism (1915), Martín-Barbero Communication and Culture (2014), and Buckingham Media Education (2003). The research is conducted with a second-year high school class in the only public secondary school in the municipality. This study highlighted the school's limitations in delivering certain content due to infrastructure issues, such as internet access, and the lack of specialized professionals in the field. Furthermore, the activities developed at the school appear to have contributed to the development of critical thinking through Media Education.

To do this, we will analyze the productions Praia dos Ossos and O caso, Últimos Passos. We take into account that such podcasts need to stand out in the attention economy scenario2 , in which there is a large amount of content competing for the public's attention. Our objective is to understand what strategies are used to capture attention for long stories narrated in audio. As a methodology, we propose a multi-method approach, inspired by Podcast Audiostructural Analysis to analyze content within categories such as: type of narrative (1st or 3rd person); chronology (episode follows historical order or not); font classification; use of tracks, use of sound effects; and use of tension hooks. We will also conduct semi-structured interviews with those responsible for the productions. As hypotheses, we consider that such podcasts explore the particularities of on-demand listening and use narratives on the edge of fiction, frequently postponing the climax and endings, to capture the attention of listeners.

Uma análise cultural das parlamentares federais negras brasileiras Autor: FERREIRA, Nayara Cristina Silva Primeiro orientador: CARDOSO, Letícia Conceição Martins Abstract: The main objective of this dissertation is to develop a cultural analysis of the identities and representations of Black Brazilian Congresswomen. The federal parliament is composed of the Chamber of Deputies, with 513 seats, and the Federal Senate, with 81 seats, totaling 594 legislative positions. In the most recent general elections, in 2022, 540 seats were up for grabs, and only 29 Black women (13 Black and 16 Brown [mixed race]) were elected to fill them. The outcome of the electoral dispute shows that political parity between men and women is far from being achieved, and among the women holding political positions, racial equality is still distant. In parallel to this reality, considering the expansion of digital social networks and their influence on contemporary society, we chose Instagram to carry out part of our analysis, which involves the relationships established by the female lawmakers, as the social network has become particularly prominent among politicians compared to other platforms. Based on the question of how Black federal lawmakers appropriate Instagram to construct their identities, our specific objective is to understand the construction of these Black politicians' identities and representations on the platform. To conduct the proposed analysis, the methodological approach used is the theoretical-methodological protocol of mediations (Martín-Barbero, 2009), which allows us to understand the communication process built within the relationships established and the meanings produced by the lawmakers in a comprehensive way, going beyond content-based and technical interpretations. The cultural analysis from the perspective of mediations addresses the communicational process in its social, institutional, economic, and technical dimensions, observing practices empirically in the cultural context in which they are embedded. In this case, to study the production-circulation-consumption logic of Black lawmakers on Instagram, it was necessary to contextualize the historical-social-cultural process of the formation of Brazilian society, deeply marked by structural racism (Almeida, 2019) and colonial patriarchy, which led us to engage with Black feminist theorists (Carneiro, 2019; Ribeiro, 2018; Kilomba, 2020; bell hooks, 2020) and decolonial theorists (Lugones, 2014; Gonzalez, 2020). Therefore, we understand this as an analytical approach to the cultural context, aiming at the decolonization of these relations. Key analytical categories also included theoretical concepts of identity and representation (Hall, 2006; Munanga, 1990). Our qualitative research also aims to reflect on the low representation of Black women and the improper appropriation of Black identity in the National Congress, which required the collection of empirical data from both the lawmakers' Instagram pages and the institutional websites of the Chamber and Senate regarding the legislative production of female lawmakers, as well as interviews with lawmakers who agreed to discuss their trajectories, legislative work, and use of the platform, which complemented our interpretations. We found that the fight for the rights of Black women and against racism is present in the agendas predominantly defended by self-identified Black lawmakers and members of left-wing parties. In contrast, those affiliated with right-wing parties, mostly self-identified as Brown, are more conservative and serve the patriarchy. Furthermore, among the Brown lawmakers, there is a clear electoral appropriation of race. Thus, we aim to contribute to the debate on the presence and effective representation of Black women in national politics.
