PEREIRA, Verônica Mendes and GOMES, Ana Maria Rabelo. Culture production and circulation throughout Xakriabá Indigenous school’s borders. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.24, e240027. Epub June 13, 2019. ISSN 1809-449X. https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782019240027.
This article’s objective is to talk about culture production and circulation throughout Xakriabá indigenous schools. In this process, we have a closer interest on culture teachers. The article is the result of a research that had ethnographic investigation as its theoric-methodologic option. We concluded that the culture is setting itself as the central element in Xakriabá’s schools and that the presence of these teachers corroborates this fact. The institution as well as those teachers’ practices make clear the intentions and the presence of a reinvention of the school’s place among the Xakriabá: a place to circulate the “culture” and their culture. This way, the school also becomes a place to exhibit others Xakriabá’s indianity.
