This session aims to reimagine the practices of data structuring in historical and political perspective. Our presentation starts with some discussions made in the Laboratório de Estudos Sobre os Usos Políticos do Passado (Laboratory for Studies on the Political Uses of the Past), hosted by the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, and then we invite you to reflect on the possibilities and limits of a database that gives protagonism to the anti-hegemonic struggle by structuring the data of the interventions and protests in monuments that pay tributes to the ones who held positions of power in a past marked by colonialism, slavery and dictatorships.
