Description
Summary:This work aims to analyze the image of indigenous people from blumenauense newspapers Der Urwaldsbote and Blumenauer Zeitung in the context of the SPI that means Indians Protection Service, in its first years of operation: 1916 to 1922. The SPI, created in 1918, was an institution organized by the federal government whose purpose was to assist the indigenous and integrate them into Brazilian society. Our research method sought to collect some transcribed news from the aforementioned newspapers and, after that, discuss the images found there concerning native peoples. The option of the press as source was given because it can be considered a tool by which societies produce and communicate their moral choices, reflections and represent conceptions of their time. In this context, we seek to understand which image those printed media tied to native peoples and how this was discussed.
