Who they are
The Kapinawá are an Indigenous people who live in the semiarid interior of Pernambuco in northeastern Brazil, amid the Caatinga landscape. Their cultural identity is shaped by a deep connection to their ancestral land and the practice of toré, a ritual that brings together singing and communal spirituality. They communicate in Portuguese and keep the memory and dignity of their origins alive.
