Kiriri from Mirandela

By Nilza Bispo Brito

The sertanejo is first and foremost a strong man, as Euclides da Cunha said in his work Os Sert es. Indeed, being from the sert o requires strength. Being an Indian in the sert o is an even more arduous task. The Kiriri people, like so many other indigenous peoples in Bahia, have suffered to reclaim their lands. To be Kiriri from Mirandela is first and foremost to be strong. Decades of confrontation, loss and struggle have not made the Kiriri give up. Today they remain on their land, rebuilding their territory in the hope of keeping their customs alive. This work recognises the history of life and struggle of indigenous people in the North East. To all the indigenous peoples, thank you very much. I dedicate this work to Prof Dr Ac cia Batista Dias.
