SILVA, Brisana Índio do Brasil de Macêdo  y  MACEDO, João Paulo. Indigenous peoples and the struggle for guaranteed rights in Piauí, Brazil. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.55, pp. 602-621. ISSN 2175-1390.

This study sought to reflect on the process of ethnic and political mobilization of indigenous peoples in Piauí, in order to know the public policies aimed at indigenous groups in the State; discuss the access of such groups to services aimed at promoting indigenous rights; and present the advances and impasses in the implementation of public policies proposed to the indigenous population of Piauí. This is a qualitative research, supported by the production of meaning in daily life, a way of doing research in Social Psychology. Twenty leaders participated, through the following methodological re sources: daily observation; conversation in daily life; semistructured interview. In short, it is observed that because they do not correspond to the identity markers recognized by the dominant groups of society, the indigenous groups of Piauí have been discriminated, oppressed, and marginalized, being constantly replaced and seen under a colonial and stereotyped image of what it is to be indigenous, that (re)produces relationships of coloniality within the institutional and social relations.

Palabras clave : Indigenous peoples; Indianness; Political action; Public policy; Coloniality.
