COSTA, Regina Alice Rodrigues Araújo; COELHO, Marcia Andréa Mata and GUERRA, Maria das Graças Gonçalves Vieira. Education and diversity: the anti-gender hunt and the case of the Eccoprime School. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2022, vol.28, e40568. Epub Apr 07, 2022. ISSN 1981-0431. https://doi.org/10.26512/lc28202240568.
The objective of this paper is to analyze the construction of an anti-gender offensive by the educational institution Eccoprime, which operated in counterpoint to the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Transsexual and Intersex (LGBTI+) Pride month. We adopted a qualitative approach and made use of a documental and bibliographical research, which is methodologically anchored in content analysis, subsidized by the analysis of virtual social networks. As considerations, we identified that the advances of educational public policies regarding respect for diversity have been strongly opposed by a moralist, neoconservative and religious fundamentalist offensive.
