This article analyzes recent audio-visual creativity by young Afrodescendants emerging out of the outskirts of Lisbon. We argue that those cultural productions are challenging unproblematic identifications of the Portuguese capital as a multicultural city shaped by African communities. Responding to issues of racism, police violence, and urban marginalization, but also to celebratory views of Portuguese society as exempt of racial discrimination, the communities inhabiting the neighborhoods of Cova da Moura and Quinta do Mocho are employing creative means to develop a positive identification of afro-diasporic communities. Engaging those means, this article places bottom-up creativity side by side to the activity of Lisbon cultural institutions such as museums and contemporary art centers. It also addresses the relevance of visual and musical creativity to counter the stereotypes and images frequently used to categorize racialized subjects and communities in Portugal. Finally, it explores the strategies employed by the residents of the above mentioned neighborhoods to struggle against the process of cultural gentrification Lisbon is going through.

自下而上的创造力和“非洲黑人”的叛乱公民身份:葡萄牙的种族差异和文化商品化

本文分析了里斯本郊区出现的年轻非洲裔非洲裔最近的视听创造力。我们认为,这些文化产物正挑战着毫无疑问地将葡萄牙首都确定为非洲社区塑造的多元文化城市。为了回应种族主义,警察暴力和城市边缘化的问题,同时也为了庆祝葡萄牙社会不受种族歧视的影响,居住在科瓦达莫拉(Cova da Moura)和金塔杜莫乔(Quinta do Mocho)街区的社区正在采取创造性的方法,对非洲散居社区。通过这些手段,本文将自下而上的创造力与里斯本文化机构(如博物馆和当代艺术中心)的活动并排放置。它还解决了视觉和音乐创造力的相关性,以应对经常用于对葡萄牙种族化的主题和社区进行分类的刻板印象和图像。最后,它探讨了上述居民区居民用来对抗里斯本正在经历的文化高档化进程的策略。
