The Kaxixó are an indigenous population, located mainly in the Martinho Campos as well as the Pompéu municipalities of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil.
The Kaxixó mostly work as field hands and servants for landholders.
The Kaxixó claim the farm owners oppose Kaxixó recognition because recognition will give the Kaxixó more leverage with the local farm owners they work for.
