This article discusses the course of the participation of natives in the process of the National Constituent Assembly (1987-1988) – in particular Ailton Krenak, from the Krenak community. We observed the construction of discourses about the participation of natives in the period, and how the indigenous category was presented to the public through the guidelines of a new constitution for the country in the first edition of Jornal da Constituinte (1987). We dialogued with the researchers Maria Regina Celestino de Almeida (2010), Miguel Alberto Bartolomé (2006), Christian Teófilo da Silva (2015). Our reflections allowed us to perceive a dynamics by Krenak about otherness, in the context of a participation to which few lines are dedicated in the first issue of the Constituent periodical.
