Abstract
The importance of José Abdias do Nascimento for the formation of the Brazilian intelligentsia is an inspiration to the anti-racist struggle of the Brazilian black population. His intellectual production problematized the nuances of anti-black racism in Brazil and articulated forms of resistance to the erasure of Brazilian black-African history. Based on these theses we relate to Nkolo Foé's proposal for decolonization in opposition to the episthemicide directed at African philosophy. Thus, at first, the focus will be on the conception of Pan-Africanism through theorists such as Marcus Garvey and Kwame Nkrumah. Finally, to resume the Brazilian thinker through the theses present in Quilombismo to think together with the African philosophy of Nkolo Foé the political-philosophical resistance to anti-black racism.
