Indigenous Studies in Latin America

Expertly translated by Malcolm McNee, Associate Professor of Portuguese and Spanish at Smith College, Eden-Brazil appears in English at a time when such invisibility is not theoretical, and indigenous peoples are demanding they be protagonists in their own narratives. But it also masks Brazil’s history of anti-indigenous violence, detailed horrifically in documentary works such as Os fuzis e as flechas: historia de sangue e resistencia indigena na ditadura (Valente, 2017).
