Reflections on the silences in education presented in this article were arranged from a survey conducted at the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia - UFU, as one of the senses and meanings of social representations of teachers working in undergraduate courses on Education Social Justice. We rely on the theoretical and methodological approach of the Social Representation Theory (SRT) and the technique of free association of words (ABRIC, 2001) to define the research procedures elaborate the data collection instruments. We applied a questionnaire using the free word association technique, instigated from a set of 13 images with 100 university professors. The most chosen words from that set of images represent the inclusion of coverage of teaching in different contexts: timelines, social, economic and cultural. For this article we selected discuss the representations of teachers related to one of the 13 images, called "Retratos silenciosos" (CÂMARA, 1975). The representations of the teachers regarding this refer to the conditions of learning and staying in school to face the social and cultural exclusion, highlighting the need for political education with a view to the exercise of Human Rights Education. Generally speaking, we realize that this image aroused mixed feelings in the subjects moved the understanding of violence, outrage or disgust the situation and attempt to release these forms of representation.
