O ensino sobre o protagonismo feminino negro em aulas de história: um estudo com professores do Ensino Médio em Boa Vista-RR

Abstract

This research is linked to the Graduate Program in Education at the Federal University of Roraima, located in Research Line 1: Teacher Training and Educational Practices. It aims to understand how black female protagonism is projected (or can be projected) in the teaching practice of high school teachers in the discipline of History in Boa Vista/RR, and has the following specific objectives: i. discuss with teachers the presence or absence of the protagonism of black women in didactic content in the classroom; ii. to analyze the possible consequences of Law 10.639/2003 in the curricular documents that make up education; and finally iii. to investigate the contents of textbooks (resource) used in the classroom by teachers who help in the educational practice on black women. For research with a qualitative approach and participatory nature, we used methodological resources such as: questionnaire, documentary survey and conversation wheel, and given the amount of content to be analyzed, we used the Content Analysis developed by Bardin to reach the final result. We can highlight that even with the debate about racism in the classroom and all the discussions about the struggles and achievements of the black population, we perceive the absence, on the part of teachers in the classroom, with regard to black women, who are still viewed as a “recent” topic to be addressed with students. Another aspect that we highlight are the reformulations of textbooks with regard to the protagonism of black women and the discussions raised in the didactic content by the deconstruction of social stereotypes - with emphasis on racism and sexism.
