“Gang Killing explodes myth of racial tolerance” (The Independent, 16/06/1995) é a manchete garrafal utilizada pelo jornal britânico na sequência do caso Alcindo Monteiro. E, de facto, há alguma sumptuosidade nessa afirmação que supera o sensacionalismo jornalístico. A 10 de Junho de 1995, sob o pretexto múltiplo de celebrar o Dia da Raça e a vitória do Sporting para a Taça de Portugal, um grupo volumoso de nacionalistas portugueses saem às ruas do Bairro Alto com o objetivo de espancar todas as pessoas negras que encontrassem pelo caminho. O resultado oficial do evento foram 11 vítimas, uma destas mortal, Alcindo, cuja trágica morte na Rua Garret atribui o nome ao processo de tribunal - o caso Alcindo Monteiro. O evento foi extensamente trabalhado pela imprensa nacional, introduzindo um debate sobre racismo organizado na sociedade portuguesa e politizando certos setores da população negra de Portugal. A sua dimensão vulcânica expressa-se, antes de mais, como uma extrusão simbólica das problematizações conjunturais, que irá reconfigurar as práticas e discursos contemporâneos sobre racismo. O objetivo desta etnografia é realizar esta incisão etno-histórica neste evento crítico, e observar como performances do presente o reconstroem, com o objetivo de empreender um estudo situacional desta memória.
“Gang Killing explodes myth of racial tolerance” (The Independent, 16/06/1995) is the headline used by the British newspaper in the wake of the Alcindo Monteiro case. And, in fact, there is some sumptuousness in that statement that surpasses journalistic sensationalism. On June 10, 1995, under the multiple pretexts of celebrating Race Day and Sporting's victory in the Cup of Portugal, a large group of Portuguese nationalists went out to the streets of Bairro Alto to lynch all the black people they found along the way. The official result of the event was 11 victims, one of them deadly, Alcindo, whose tragic death in Rua Garrett gives name to the court process - the Alcindo Monteiro’s case. The event was extensively worked on by the national press, introducing a debate on organized racism in Portuguese society and politicizing certain sectors of Portugal's black population. Its volcanic dimension expresses itself, above all, as a symbolic extrusion of conjunctural problematizations, which will reconfigure contemporary practices and discourses on racism. The goal of this ethnography is to perform a ethno-historical incision in this critical event, and observe how present-day performances reconstruct it, with the aim of undertaking a situational study of this memory.
