Abstract
This paper aims to analyze the use of audiovisual production in social media as a Covid-19 defense and prevention mechanism among indigenous communities. The online holding of the Camp Free Land, as well debates and the production and dissemination of prevention videos on indigenous social networks marked the pandemic crisis in Brazil. The research brings up some historical aspects of the role played by epidemics and diseases in the trajectory of Brazilian indigenous peoples, raising reflections on this theme from the perspective of both non-indigenous and indigenous authors (OLIVEIRA; FREIRE, 2006; KOPENAWA; ALBERT, 2015; KRENAK, 2019). From the unsystematic observation of social media in Covid-19 times, this research notes the empowerment of indigenous media activism and the expansion of self-representation through audiovisual.
