O processo de constituição da identidade negra: reflexões sobre o papel da escola

Abstract

This work points to reflections on the role and importance of the school in the constitution of a positive identity on the part of black people. Reflects on racial relations in Brazil, seeks to understand how a constitution of black identity took place in our country, from important scholars such as MURANGA (2019), SANTOS (1983), GOMES (2017), FANON (1983) GOMES (2005) CAVALLEIRO (2005), GONÇALVES (2004), reflect in more detail, the role that the school plays, on the constitution of the identity of black people. This is because black people in Brazil go through different types of prejudice. They suffer from racism, discrimination and their identities have been denied all along. The School is considered by the authors and authors surveyed as a space for learning, reproduction, and privileges, which at the same time can segregate and exclude mainly the black subject. Four hundred years have passed and the stigmas about the person of black people are still present and our environment and school are strong and can and should contribute to the construction of positive black identities. We saw that their role in constituting the positive identity of black people according to and as authors surveyed, points to a school routine marked by prejudice, racism and continuity of discriminatory practices against black people and, therefore, denial of their identities. Such practices, although explicit, are little debated by and by education professionals and by the school as an educational institution. School silence according to the authors studied is oppressive and excluding. Far from ending the discussion of the theme proposed in this work, we understand the importance of continuing this debate and reflection.
