- Abstract
The article focuses on the Tambor de Crioula, a cultural celebration in Northern Brazil that serves as a form of thanksgiving to São Benedito while providing care and empowerment for caregivers and children. Topics include the historical significance of the Tambor de Crioula, its role in forming a literal and metaphorical circle of care, and the importance of decolonizing public policy to support indigenous and Afro-Brazilian communities' traditional practices.
