About indigenous students at the university: devices and production of subjectivities

ABSTRACT:

This article analyzed statements by indigenous students of the Gavião ethnic group, from the newly created Universidade Federal do Sul e Sudeste do Pará (Unifesspa), recorded in talks promoted in their respective villages, where they reported their experiences and expectations in College Education. We edited parts of 10 of these students’ speeches and also used two Unifesspa publications focused on indigenous students. As theoretical-analytical reference, take the device’s concept of Michel Foucault and the arqueo-genealogical perspective to understand the historical transformations that culminate in the present, pointing out how the indigenous presence have destabilized academic homogeneity.
