Synopsis "Tembé Stories"

Through Anthropology and Literature, we try to understand the stories present among the Tembé of Santa Maria do Pará (more specifically from the villages of Jeju and Areal) beyond literary oral narratives, but as identity-political tools that strengthen the struggle for indigenous rights. The Tembé have been forced to live with hundreds of squatter families on their land and suffer the effects of irregular activities by loggers, farmers and businessmen. However, far from resigning themselves to this situation, the Tembé people have been fighting to have their territory cleared and demanding their rights from public bodies and local authorities through their organization AITESAMPA (Associação Indígena dos Tembé de Santa Maria do Pará). With this study, therefore, we intend to deepen our knowledge of historical land disputes, naturalized violence against indigenous people and oral narratives as identity-political tools.
