OLIVEIRA, Suely Noronha de. Initial motivations for the elaboration of guidelines for quilombola school education in Bahia. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.49, pp.35-51. ISSN 0104-7043.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.v26.n49.3551.

For the quilombolas, the enactment of Law 10.639/2003, which obliges the teaching of Afro-Brazilian and African history and culture in educational institutions, was considered by them a conquest, but it was not enough to meet school demands and educational concerns of this group. This situation motivated quilombola organizations to introduce quilombola school education as a demand in the debate agenda on public policies of diversity in Brazilian education. This article presents an investigation about the construction process of the Curriculum Guidelines for Quilombola School Education in the state of Bahia and its relationship with national politics. An analysis of the local process of construction of the demand in the state is realized, focusing the initial motivations and the organizational-political context. The research used qualitative methodology, with participant observation, fieldwork of ethnographic character (Salvador-BA), analysis of written sources (official documents) and oral sources (informal conversations, participation in public hearings and semi-structured interviews with quilombola leaders, consultants and researchers). The result of this investigation is a temporal analytical narrative of the initial motivations for the construction of Curriculum Guidelines for Quilombola School Education in the state of Bahia. This article achieve to identify the continuities and discontinuities in its development.
