Pankararu Indigenous People; Music Show; Countercoloniality; Educational and Identity Processes
This dissertation seeks to engage in an ethnographic dialogue with the formative processes promoted by the indigenous producer Aió Conexões in the organization of the “Pankararu Music Show”, which takes place annually in the Bem Querer de Cima Village, in the Pankararu Indigenous Territory in the city of Jatobá (PE). In this opportunity, we intend to describe and interpret the educational and cultural intersections inherent to the work developed by the producer Aió Conexões, as well as in the organization of the annual event “Pankararu Music Show”, from its curation to its realization, taking into account its relevance as an instrument of resistance and countercolonial practice (SANTOS, 2023). In this sense, we seek to weave dialogues with the concept of critical transculturalism (SANTANA, 2005) and its epistemological layers regarding the expression of the human condition and also Indiofuturism/Ancestral Futurism (PAIVA, 2021), analyzing how technologies become important tools for the dissemination of the identity and formative processes of the Pankararu Indigenous People.
