Favelas are neighborhoods built by residents, and they were first formed by former enslaved people and their descendants who were not afforded housing or labor policies following the end of the longest and largest slavery regime of European colonialism. Today, despite having the lowest Human Development Index in the city (0.711) and disproportionately fewer public services such as schools and health care facilities, Complexo do Alema\u0303o is a site of intense artistic activity, political organization, and production of solutions for everyday life. I discuss here activists\u2019 strategic engagement with literacies of survival, that is, the contextual use of resources and technologies of writing for creatively grappling with the legacies of the transatlantic slave trade \u2013 including anti-Black racism and aggressive policing \u2013 and pursuing redress of longstanding inequities. Analytically, I build a case study unpacking communicative strategies and reflexive semiotic models enacted by participants of Faveladoc, a grassroots documentary-making workshop that I attended in 2021. I examine how a group of majorly Black participants engaged with digital literacies to grapple with a shootout that broke out during a meeting. I discuss the role of local (digital) literacy practices and a situated literacy event in rendering uncertainty into a backdrop from which modes of reorienting knowledge, building socialites, and pursuing resources could emerge. Through further enacting a distributed embodiment \u2013 collective commitments beyond a bounded body \u2013 participants facilitated hope as a creative and action-oriented affect that has had political impacts for peripheries. <\/span><\/p>\n Wenn Sie daran teilnehmen m\u00f6chten, senden Sie bitte eine Nachricht an redico at uni-potsdam.de<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ReDICo freut sich, einen Gastvortrag von Prof. Daniel Nascimento e Silva (Bundesuniversit\u00e4t von Santa Catarina, Brasilien) an der Universit\u00e4t Potsdam am 17.
