A Lei 10.639/2003: estratégias docentes de promoção da igualdade racial através do ensino de história

Abstract

The present work analyzes the reports of teachers of the discipline History that integrate the Institutional Program of Initiatives to Teaching - PIBID, exercising the function of supervisor in the schools of the state network in which they work, to identify if the presence of this program in their schools facilitates the discussion and implementation of Law 10.639 / 2003. For the conquest of an education with antiracist bases it is necessary to understand the Brazilian historical process, where the racial question has always been an object of discussion; so we use the idea of race as a present element in the construction of society and in racism as an operant present category that governs Brazilian social relations, in addition to believing in the capacity of history teaching, through the decolonization of the curriculum, to be a decisive instrument in the implementation of the law and consequently in the promotion of racial equality, strengthening the principle that teacher training, both in its initial and ongoing stages, are possible ways for the use of teachers for the implementation of this, still arduous, task that is to educate for the racial equality. In the field of research we analyze the three schools of the state of Rio de Janeiro that integrate the PBID / UFRJ - subproject History. We follow the following plan of study: to historicize in the social context of the social sciences the Brazilian racial question; inventory specific legislation whose focus is to guarantee the rights of the black; analyze how teachers see the current history curriculum of the network in which they work and the possibilities of decolonizing these curricula through the activities promoted by PIBID and consequently promote an education for racial equality. The research results point out that the tradition of teaching history is still very strong and rooted in the practices of teachers, who are still struggling even to break with it. And with regard to PIBID, we perceive that there is an attempt to break with this tradition and as a consequence this involves the way in which the obligatoriness brought by the legislation is worked, but the excess of institutional demands as well as of the school floor end up pulverizing too much of the program
