AFRODESCENDENTES NA SOCIEDADE BRASILEIRA: (IN) VISIBILIDADE ENTRE AS LEIS E AS PRÁTICAS EDUCACIONAIS (ESCOLAS MUNICIPAIS DE GOIÂNIA-2017)

Abstract

The policies of racial equality promoted by the government with the objective of overcoming racism run counter to stereotyped concepts linked to social, economic and cultural issues fed year after year by a discourse of equality and opportunity for all. In this context, this study aims to analyze the insertion of Afro-Brazilian culture, starting with Law 10.639 / 2003, which makes it compulsory to teach Afro-Brazilian History and Culture in the country's schools. It is hoped that it contributed to repair centuries of silence regarding the contribution of men and women of this ethnic group in the construction of the country, in its multiple social and cultural aspects, collaborating to deconstruct the discourse of passivity on the part of the blacks, against barbarism and to emphasize the relentless struggle of this group for recognition and appreciation of their participation in the construction of this society. The research was carried out through bibliographical readings, with studies that show the participation of the Negro in the construction of the Brazilian society from its arrival to the the manual of the history guide of the National Book of the Didactic Book Program (PNLD) of 2017 was analyzed to understand some changes in the textbook on the Afro-Brazilian question. This work was concluded with the field research in some municipal schools, where a questionnaire was applied to the faculty and students, sectors of the Municipal Education Department and with the collaboration of the Afro-Brazilian Study and Extension Program (Proafro) of PUC Goiás, seeking reflections on the implementation of law 10.639 / 2003 in this municipality.
