A pandemia começou quando os brancos chegaram

The devastation of socio-biodiverse territories propagated by the modern colonial/capitalist society underlies the current intense ecological crisis. With this premise, the objective of this paper is to present an analysis of how the model of modern colonial society puts the life and territorial rights of indigenous peoples at risk, not only that the common land, planet Earth. The Macuxi artist, Jaider Esbell, as well as the ñandesy and ñanderu Kaiowá and Guarani, contribute significantly to thinking about the destruction and end of the world propagated by the colonial-capitalist system, together with it, pondering about the anti-colonial resistance modes that germinate from the ancestral struggle of the native peoples. From semi-structured interviews with fellow Kaiowá and Guarani, most of them through digital platforms, documents created by traditional councils and accompanying political mobilization, we analyzed the processes and autonomous practices of Kaiowá and Guarani self-defense in Mato Grosso do Sul, especially those strengthened in the context of the Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) Pandemic, such as the insurgency of sanitary barriers, which constituted one of the forms of collective care in the face of the disease
