SANTANA, José Diêgo Leite  and  LAGE, Allene Carvalho. African pedagogies: of post-abyssal existence in times of utopias and [re]existence. Rev. Exitus [online]. 2020, vol.10, e020075.  Epub Mar 28, 2022. ISSN 2237-9460.  https://doi.org/10.24065/2237-9460.2020v10n1id803.

One of the pedagogies that create victorious and unsubdued bodies is African pedagogy, which with its narratives invites to the process of awareness of the Being and offers means for the struggle to take place in the marginalized and invisible epistemological territories. Therefore, the African pedagogy crowns the unsubdued and resistant bodies. It allows for a relationship other than the colonial one that is located in only two poles: domineering and dominated. Thus, this research presents the following question: "In what way does the African Pedagogy contributes to the confrontation of the Coloniality of the Being and to the resignification of the bodies historically silenced?". The research aims at understanding how the African Pedagogy contributes to the confrontation of the Coloniality of Being and to the re-signification of the bodies historically silenced. The research method used was afrocentricity.

Keywords : African pedagogies; Coloniality of Being; Post-abyssal thinking.
