Abstract

SACRAMENTO, Cristina Carla  and  ABREU JR, Laerthe de Moraes. The negroes, ethnic-racial diversity and school: the didactic-pedagogic treatment of afro-brazilian history and culture in two books of history of brazil in the first half of the Twentieth Century. Rev. Reflex [online]. 2013, vol.21, n.1es, pp.221-243. ISSN 1982-9949.  https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v21iesp1.0221.

This study aims to examine, from a historical perspective, the relations between ethnic-racial diversity in Brazil and didactic-pedagogic treatment of Afro-Brazilian history and culture in two books, concerning History Brazil, issued in the first half of the twentieth century, assuming that these teaching materials also exercised in that period the function of transmitting values and behaviors desirable to that society. Moreover, it is important to highlight the complaints of the black movement in relation to the absence of school discussions about the African-Brazilian question and the reproduction of prejudices that contribute to alienate black people while restricting their access to material and cultural goods. This initiative culminated in the implementation of affirmative action policies by the government, in order to promote the recognition and appreciation of the many ethnic groups that make up Brazilian society.

Keywords : Negroes in Brazil; Ethnic and Racial Diversity; Pedagogical Practice; Affirmative Policies.
