Juremas Children in the Forest of Spirits: Healing and Ritual Among Two Brazilian Indigenous Groups

This in-depth study examines the colonized native groups of the Kariri and the Shoko of North-eastern Brazil and it shows how a threatened minority group can effectively help to shape its future and how small groups of disenfranchized individuals can recover their ethnic identity and human dignity.
