The aim of this study is to reflect on Paulo Freire's legacy and the possible processes of resistance and permanence from popular education, in what concerns the confrontation with the neoconservative movement. It has as its research question the ways how the legacy of Freire can contribute to the undermining of the current neoconservative wave that hits the Brazilian society, especially in the field of education. It is a predominantly theoretical analysis seeking dialogue with the political, economic and social fields, with emphasis on education. As theoretical references we dialogue with Freire (1967, 1980, 1983), Bobbio, Matteucci & Pasquino (1998), Mounk (2019), Apple (2004), among others. As we deepen in this literature, we highlight three dimensions to understand the current moment we are living, and highlight possible paths for a resistance based in education: Freire's trajectory in the construction of the viable novelty; the neoconservative wave in contemporary times and the praxis needed to face the challenges of an oppressive reality. We also point out some possible ways to deepen studies and practices from the Freire legacy, reinventing it in a continuous process of action-reflection-action in search of the dream of building resistance.
