ARAUJO, Fátima Maria Leitão  e  OLIVEIRA, Marcus Aurelio Taborda de. From political militancy to becoming a teacher: revisited memories, intertwined (hi)stories. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2022, vol.27, e270001.  Epub 17-Fev-2022. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782022270001.

This article aims to analyze the life story of four female teachers, who were political militants against the Brazilian civil-military dictatorship in the 1960s and 1970s. Through their memories, we try to understand their school and academic trajectories, unveiling the main social institutional influences, ideas, and perspectives presented in their political formation process. Also, we aim to understand the definition of their roles as women, militants, and teachers, connecting the past and the present. We used oral history as empirical support, highlighting their life trajectories and observing the connection between family, public and private schools, Catholic Church, political parties, universities, and dictatorship agents. We conclude that political militancy during the teachers’ youth period is an indelible aspect of their experiences, considering that they believed in youth transformation and their role in the changing society.

Palavras-chave : history of education; political militancy; teachers’ lives; memories; education, and dictatorship.
