- Abstract
In this work, we propose an examination of the meanings disseminated by the traditional media about the gesture of Tuíra, on the occasion of the I Meeting of the indigenous peoples from the Amazon, in 1989. To this end, we trace the socio-historical situation that led to the contingent fact, namely, the touch of the Indian machete on the face of the Director of Eletronorte, José Antônio Muniz Lopes. We will discuss how the great mass media, which covered the event, at the time, worked to stop any possibility of the different, the possibility of another meaning that could make the discursive memory shatter in its functioning. The discursive corpus consists of discursive materialities of a different semiotic nature, that is, the famous photo that captured the historical scene of the Tuíra, touching with her machete the face of the former director of Eletronorte José Antônio Muniz Lopes and an extract of a journalistic article that, at the time, thematized such enunciative scene.
