Macumba becomes news with controversy involving Goldschmidt march, Alcione and Preta Gil


The ritual connected to Afro-Brazilian religions was highlighted with quotes in Globo and SBT

Macumba became popular as a generic term to refer to Candomblé and Umbanda. It is used worse than those who want to attack Afro-Brazilian religions.

In the last few days, it has gained importance for three media situations. The first was the gear participation Goldschmidt in “Na Target”, SBT interview program.

The presenter was uncomfortable when he was asked of ancient gossip of rivalry. “A former gossip colleague accused you of having made Macumba against him in the study of the Women program; he was sick, he was hospitalized,” said the hidden voice, referring to the journalist Leo Lobo.

“Was he hospitalized in psychiatry?” March fired. “We know that people who are not relevant to the need to create disappointments with the names of people who are relevant to get some space … I don’t make Macumba, I do an audience.”

This behind the “legend” of TV pursues Goldmidt 20 years ago, as well as Mara Maravilha deals with the rumor of having done a spiritual work against Angelica in the 90s. “I never hit the drum, respect for religion, but I had a reputation for Macumbira and I never did Macumba,” he said in the “game of the three points”.




Mass offense

Another repercussion on Macumba occurred by the declaration of his father Danilo César de Sousa Bezerra in Mass in the city of Areti, Paraíba.

He moved the faith of Preta Gil, a Candomblé Adept, a victim of cancer at the age of 50.

“How is the name of the father of Preta Gil? Gilberto Gil said a prayer to the Orisha, where these Orixá have no re -triggers preta Gil?

The priest was reported to the police for religious intolerance. The diocese of the Region issued a note by saying “engaged in the constitutional rights of freedom of belief and worship, equality and non -religious discrimination, the right of honor and image of the dead and the principle of human dignity”.

The discrimination identified in the mocking and disrespectful words of the father reflect the growth of attacks in Candomblé and Umbanda Terreiros in Brazil and the people who wear clothing and accessories associated with African religions.

Preta Gil has always defended respect for religions and the free practice of different beliefs, even married under the blessings of a priest in a traditional church of Rio.

Chicken for trump

Live to “è de Casa” of Globo, Alcione caused laughter – and annoyed the devotees conservatives of America – disapproving the actions of the President of the United States Donald Trump against Brazil.

“I want to send a message to Trump. He has to leave Brazil on his own, drop Alexandre de Moraes, our wonderful minister. When I go out from here I will make a Macumbinha for Trump,” he said, raising laughter between presenters and guests. “In this land there is something that does not have there: Macumba. Is their macumba good?”

Alcione’s “threat” was celebrated in X with countless support posts. One of them joked: “Trump has the atomic bomb and Brazil has the Macumba di Alcione”. There were also messages of disapproval against the singer.

The artist was born in a Catholic house in Maranhão, he had contacts with the spiritism of Kardecista (subjected to surgery with the famous spirit of Dr. Fritz to treat a tumor in the throat) and then dedicated himself to Umbanda and Candomblé. She is the daughter of Shango and Yansã.
