BELTRAN ESPITIA, Manuel  e  MONTOYA GIRALDO, Elizabeth. Forgiveness and reconciliation from the Alabaos in the Afro communities of the Colombian Pacifics. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.1, pp.19-34. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.4121.

This research emerges from the interest of analyzing forgiveness and reconciliation from the Traditional chants (Alabaos) on death, within the frame of violence arising from the armed conflict, in situations lived in communities in the municipality of Andagoya, State of Chocó, Colombia. It analyzes people’s experiences around the expression of feelings through chants of Alabaos, Gualíes, and Levantamientos de Tumbas, which are typical of this region of the Pacific in order to farewell the souls of the deceased and how these practices operate, when it comes to processing forgiveness and reconciliation, individually and collectively.

Palavras-chave : Forgiveness; Reconciliation; Afro-descendants; Alabaos; Gualíes.
