Reformatório Krenak (2016) - legenda em inglês

The resistance of the Krenak people of Resplendor (MG) is documented in the video-report
“Reformatório Krenak” (by Rogério Corrêa, 2016), produced by Itaú Cultural and the Procuradoria
Regional de Direitos do Cidadão - of the Ministério Público Federal - of Minas Gerais.
Created during the military dictatorship, the reformatory officially operated from 1969 to 1972 as a prison
and a place of torture, slave labor and violation of the rights of the indigenous people. The degradation
process of the community also included a rural guard composed of Indians, distorting the Krenak’s
cultural characteristics and transforming victims into oppressors of their peers.
On November 5, 2015, the Krenak were hit by the greatest environmental disaster in Brazil: the collapse
of the Fundão dam, the reservoir of mining byproducts controlled by Samarco in Mariana (MG). Fifty
million cubic meters of toxic mud were dumped into the Doce River basin, which encompasses 230
municipalities. The devastation left 19 dead and affected, among others, the Krenak community of 400
people who live on 4,000 hectares on the Doce River’s left bank.
Currently, the Krenak people demand a territorial review of their demarcated lands to include the Sete
Salões area, composed of a series of caves they consider sacred, in addition to their right to life.
“Krenak Reformatory” was shown to the public for the first time during the Seminar on the One-Year
Balance of the Fundão Dam Collapse, organized by the Group of Social-Environmental Studies and
Research of the Federal University of Ouro Preto (Ufop), to discuss and analyze topics, agendas and
studies related to the year following the Mariana environmental disaster.

Nesses momentos eu tenho uma vergonha de ser brasileira... Maus e perversos! E até hoje os indígenas sofrendo...
