O preconceito racial na Escola Estadual do Campo 1º de Setembro do Assentamento Egídio Brunetto - PR: reflexões sobre o tema

Abstract

The objective of this work is to understand how the issue of racial prejudice is presented at the State College of the 1st September of the Egídio Brunetto settlement, located in the Midwest region of the State of Paraná. From this we define important concepts to understand how socially presented and how is pedagogically worked racial prejudice in the School of the Field. We describe a brief history about the Egídio Brunetto Settlement and the 1st September Field State College, as we also contextualize historically the Brazilian laws that were created to combat racial prejudice. The research methodology was qualitative in nature and used the following data collection tools: interviews with Afrodescendent and white students of the 5th, 6th and 9th Years; participant observation of the daily life of the College and the students, such as the games, the behavior and the place they occupy in the classroom, how they interact and how they dialogue with teachers. Observation of teachers' pedagogical work on Afro-Brazilian culture; the analysis of documents such as the College's PPP and the legislation that made the teaching of Afro-Brazilian culture compulsory in schools, such as nº 10.639 / 03. We contacted the results of the research that: - the College is having difficulties to approach the history of Afro-Brazilians in the curricular components; - school management has basically been limited to analyzing racial prejudice and discrimination in the school environment; there is a lack of teacher training on the subject. In this sense, it was possible to observe that the students are feeling isolated on the issues and discussions about the racial prejudice existing in the school. It is concluded that the theme of racial prejudice in the State College of the Field 1 ° September Egídio Brunetto Settlement has been little approached in the educational environment.
