Discusses art, literature, and political engagement of Indigenous populations in contemporary Brazil. With a Decolonial viewpoint, this course analyses a series of works by Indigenous authors that underscores their culture, identity, and political expression. By focusing on the significance of the first-person testimonies, students will become more familiar with the diversity of languages and traditions that are otherwise homogenized by the ideological frameworks of those (non-indigenous) occupying a place and space of power. Taught in English.
