JESUS, Rodrigo Ednilson de. Efficient mechanisms in the production of school failure of young blacks: stereotypes, silencing and invisibilization. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2018, vol.34, e167901.  Epub 10-Jan-2018. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698167901.

The article aims to reflect on some of the efficient mechanisms in the production of school failure of black youth, from the results of the survey “The exclusion of young teenagers aged 15 to 17 attending high school in Brazil: challenges and prospects “. The survey was carried out in the years 2012 and 2013 in the cities of Belo Horizonte, Brasilia, Sao Paulo, Fortaleza and Belem. From the experiences reported by young teens, over in depth interviews conducted in São Paulo city, we have observed how the stereotyping of bodies seen as abnormal, together with silencing about racism, affect the self-image and self-esteem of young people, contributing directly and indirectly to the high dropout rates observed in this ethnic-racial group.
