Over the past decade, indigenous organizations in the state capital have drawn attention to this problem and taken protagonist measures to try to change it. The Indigenous Council of Roraima (CIR), through their lawyer, Joênia Wapichana, elected, in 2018 the first Indigenous woman to be a federal deputy, set up a project to write down indigenous oral law so that it could be used locally to deal with criminal cases, encouraging indigenous communities to resolve accusations of crimes through councils of local leaders and thereby avoid them being handed over to the mainstream criminal justice system. 2021 artículo científico 1809-4341 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=406969792011 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4069/406969792011/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4069/406969792011/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4069/406969792011/406969792011.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4069/406969792011/movil 10.1590/1809-43412021v18a702 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4069 VIBRANT - Vibrant Virtual Brazilian Anthropology application/pdf Associação Brasileira de Antropologia VIBRANT - Vibrant Virtual Brazilian Anthropology (Brasil) Vol.18 |
