The purpose of this article is to discuss the annual activity reports of the Movement for Justice and Human Rights, from 1979 to 2015, based on the content analysis of Laurence Bardin. Consequently, this work proposal converted in two fronts of analysis, the first of which consisted of a summary of the content analysis of the reports, which corresponded to the following analytical categories: defenses in favor of Human Rights; activities conditioned to Social Movements (except those in defense of Human Rights); and promotion and campaigns. This first analysis resulted in the focus of the Movement's activities, that is, it highlighted its role in the struggle for human rights. The second part of the analysis corresponded precisely research purpose that is, to relate the role of the archives of social movements, in the case of the Movement, with memory and archives. Therefore, the documentation present in the collection makes this place a social tool and a source of data and protection of the truth by documents that have a character of testimony and evidence that the facts occurred. In addition to being a social instrument, the Movement's archive is a place that keeps memory in exercise, preventing it from becoming absent and, consequently, becoming forgetfulness.
