Abstract
The text that makes up this essay points to some excerpts and relations between the Brazilian civil-military dictatorship and the Roraima state’s constitution as well as its capital, Boa Vista City. To do so, I start from the narrative of an old character of these events, referring, among other things, to the increment of migratory flows, to predatory extraction, to censorship against people and, especially, to the genocidal contact between white man and Yanomami and Wamiri-Atroari indigenous people, in the construction of two federal highways that go through the territories of these traditional communities. From the theoretical-epistemological point of view, it seeks, applying psychology and its different interlocutions, an approximate effort with such stories, the ways of counting them and the different policies that can sustain our listening to the narrated. It is placed, thus, as a double-implicated ethical-political undertaking. First, outlining the reasons, institutions, and practices that made possible the existence of such events. Second, alerting to the danger of perpetuation or repetition of barbarism in the present.
