O negro e o sistema educacional brasileiro: entre exclusões e negligências

Abstract

This work discusses the different aspects present and involved in the process of the black population within the educational system throughout the history of Brazil, as well as public policies aimed at this population. As a methodology, a bibliographic review was carried out on the Scielo, Pepsic, Google Scholar platforms, monographs, dissertations and theses in repositories from different Universities. After the review, relationships were drawn from different perspectives and authors who discuss themes involved in the process of exclusion of the black population, with regard to education. It was possible to observe that different factors and forms of operation of racism were present at different moments in history, and that they drove racial inequality within the Brazilian social fabric. Furthermore, it was also possible to observe the fundamental presence of the black movement throughout the entire process involving public policies, from demands to the implementation and supervision of such policies. Within this perspective, it is worth highlighting how racial inequalities spread across different areas of society, affecting the black population not only in the educational aspect. Within the final considerations, it is clear that there is a huge need to create a large apparatus of public policies to develop actions aimed at reducing numerous racial inequalities, including in the field of education. That is, thinking about inequalities within the field of education involves a complexity of social, economic and cultural factors that have direct influences on racial and social relations and inequalities.
