BASZILE, Denise Taliaferro. QUANDO VIDAS NEGRAS IMPORTAM... De que vale o currículo?. Revista Teias [online]. 2017, vol.18, n.51, pp.164-174. Epub Mar 13, 2020. ISSN 1982-0305. https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2017.30560.
Questioning curriculum from narratives in which “BlackLivesMatter” the essay argues that what has always ailed the project of justice in the Americas and elsewhere is a profound lack of love for Black people. A lack so profound and persistent it has the potential to erode, even Black people’s love for Black people, not simply by placing more value on White lives, but also by swallowing up the places and moments where Black people or any marginalized group of people might imagine otherwise. This is exactly how the (patho)logic of white supremacist capitalist patriarchy works. It distorts love. While this fact is quite evident in the material realities of Black death and Black imprisonment it is also evident in the ways that schooling and how the knowledge therein functions through a series of curriculums-offical and unofficial--of Black death and disregard.
