The central theme of this thesis is the disputes over memories of the struggle for land that occurred in Cachoeirinha from the mid-1960s, a settlement that later became the city of Verdelândia in 1996, Norte of Minas Gerais. Inspired in Social History, memory here has been understood as an arena of social struggles, in which each epoch projects its strength and its categories on the past, sometimes influencing the way of perceiving it. In this sense, the central objective of this thesis was to capture this movement and the social production of memories produced by and on the workers who, in the midst of projections, recoveries and attempts to erase versions, constructed hegemonic ways of remembering that the process of struggle for the land of tonalities marked by images delineated by the expulsion of “squatters” who occupied what is not his. From interviews with rural workers who experienced expulsion processes, newspapers and a criminal process, it was possible to visualize the ways in which these workers, in the process of struggle, instituted their territories and their ways of living and working in the midst of hardness of life. The research made it possible to show that “the memories make themselves fight and the fight becomes memories” in a continuous process, alive and dynamic, revealing the strength and vitality of the memories produced as a sign of struggle, process in progress, presence, Which reveals that the struggle for land did not end in any event, such as the expulsion of the “squatters” in 1967, but is made and re-established as a right to life and a dynamic process of struggle that does not cease.
