GRUTZMANN, Lidiane Fatima. Teacher, I know I'm going to hell! The uneasiness in the face of tension between dominant and marginal morality in two schools in the outskirts of São Paulo. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2023, vol.28, e280090.  Epub Sep 06, 2023. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782023280090.

This paper has as object the final report of the project The ancestor and the contemporary in schools: recognition and affirmation of Afro-Brazilian histories and cultures that was developed by the research group Multiculturalism and Education (Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico) in two different public schools on the outskirts of São Paulo between the years 2016 and 2017. The shared teaching strategy led local teachers and students to enjoy esthetics and artistic experiences that were deep rooted in the African ancestry and its outcomes in the culture of São Paulo outskirts: the hip-hop, the funk, the capoeira, the rap, the grafitti, among others. The reports showed that these elements, although intersected in the midst of the field of interest of teenagers and young people, are absent of the classrooms because they are motivators of a discontentment caused by the tension between a dominant morality and a marginal one that bursts from the worked artistic expressions, essentially critical and disruptive.

Keywords : discontentment; tension; morality; African ancestry; school.
