O protagonismo de mulheres indígenas e suas repercussões emocionais

Abstract

The role of indigenous women in Brazil has grown rapidly today. Many of them are breaking paradigms and occupying new spaces that were previously outside their reality. Thus, we currently find the presence of indigenous women playing a leading role in various spaces, such as politics, education, health and other places. The prejudice that these women suffer is notorious, even more so because they are indigenous, however, their empowerment and resistance in the face of this has opened new paths for others. In this context, the responsibilities that are directed to women by society overwhelm them, being emphasized even more when they become active and protagonists in their struggles. In this sense, the present research is the result of a practical study, carried out in a qualitative way, which sought to understand the emotional repercussions caused to indigenous women due to their protagonism. Therefore, aiming to identify how your emotional state is affected and how your daily routine influences your physical and especially mental well-being.
