Abstract

El modo de esclavitud mayoritariamente urbana del Camagüey colonial, permitió que el esclavo dispusiese de tiempo para intercambiar con la cultura y decantar elementos que le permitiesen conquistar espacios de libertad, espiritualidad y práctica devocional mercedaria; los cuales proporcionaron fundamento espiritual al camino de liberación e integración social de la población afrodescendiente en la barriada del Cristo. Para ello asumieron formalmente prácticas católicas mientras continuaban solapadamente ejerciendo su religión en escenarios como las cofradías y cabildos.
The mostly urban mode of slavery in colonial Camagüey, allowed the slave to have time to exchange with culture and decant elements that would allow him to conquer spaces of freedom, Mercedarian spirituality and devotional practice provided spiritual foundation to the path of liberation and social integration of the Afro-descendant population in the Barrio del Cristo and for this they formally assumed Catholic practices while they continued to secretly practice their religion in settings such as the brotherhoods and town councils.
