CINTRA, Éllen Daiane  e  WELLER, Wivian. Female black students in public and private High Schools: intersectional readings about their experiences and perceptions of racism. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2021, vol.37, e76051.  Epub 26-Out-2021. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.76051.

Based on a comparative and intersectional analysis of discourses of High School black females in a public school and a private school in the Federal District, this article analyses how racism and discrimination are articulated in the construction of social relations within and outside school. The empirical research relied on group discussions, and the intersectionality perspective was used as a theoretical and analytical tool to understand how the axes of race, gender, and class shaped the experiences of racism and discrimination inside and outside school. We concluded that discrimination and racism negatively affect young black females from different social classes as well as their social relations. We believe that education and school play a crucial role, both in the sense of omission, allowing the reproduction of these processes, and regarding position-taking, when it triggers mechanisms for punishment and the re-education of individuals who maintain racist attitudes or discourses and/or when it fosters practices aimed at anti-racism. Furthermore, we highlight the transforming potential of education and educational tools to substantiate anti-racist practices in the school context.
