The theme of this article is the experience of Indigenous peoples in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. The objective is to analyze the way in which native groups from various regions of the country were forced to migrate from rural areas to Brazil’s largest city, with
total disregard for their ancestral ways of life and worldviews. The study demonstrates that housing in urban vertical villages in São Paulo is complemented by the absence of Indigenous public policies that guarantee the exercise of full participatory citizenship in the city. This fact makes it difficult to rewrite a history that places Indigenous peoples as protagonists of their own history.
