| description | Abstract The main objective of this article is to examine the political mobilization of the Tupinambá of Serra do Padeiro (southern Bahia) during the presidential term of Jair Messias Bolsonaro (2019-2022). In a context of grave rights violations, the Indigenous movement emerged as one of the main forces of resistance to Bolsonarismo. Through an analysis of the strategies developed in Serra do Padeiro, we take five key episodes as starting points: the uncovering of a targeted plan to exterminate Indigenous leaders, an attempt to build a resort on Tupinambá territory, setbacks in the demarcation procedures for the Tupinambá de Olivença Indigenous Territory, mobilization of repressive forces against protective measures adopted in Serra do Padeiro during the Covid-19 pandemic, and the granting of an eviction order against the Tupinambá. Through a detailed examination of a specific case, we seek to contribute to the production on forms of collective action carried out by Indigenous peoples. |
