Abstract

ANDRADE, Patrícia Gomes Rufino. THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOYD AND THE STRENGTHENING OF THE ANTI-RACIST FIGHT: "NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE”. Eccos Rev. Cient. [online]. 2022, n.60, e21733.  Epub Feb 08, 2024. ISSN 1983-9278.  https://doi.org/10.5585/eccos.n60.21733.

Suddenly we find ourselves in a pandemic, year 2020 of the 21st century. Habits, customs, cultures take new directions and meanings in the face of the global threat of death from Covid-19. Inequalities are accentuated. Again it is a black body that draws attention for its cruel racist care. Would it be too much to imagine that the world would once again need the sacrifice of a black body to alert itself? However, the racist historical processes of Minneapolis challenged the effectiveness of the complaints after the death of George Floyd and put back the scene of the permanent anti-racist struggle. The methodological path of this experience report will reflect on the territories of exclusion and the educational pulse of street demonstrations in Hennepin County, where the murder of George Floyd took place. Blacks and non-blacks took to the streets to denounce but also left hope about the effective possibilities that an anti-racist education could provide. We conclude that in these new times of inequalities under the Covid-19 pandemic, there is a complaint about structural racism, although there is also an effective bet on an anti-racist education.

Keywords : George Floyd; spatial racialization; anti-racist education.
