África e questões étnico-raciais: relato de experiência de estágio supervisionado em geografia na Escola Professora Anayde Beiriz - João Pessoa-PB

Abstract

This term Paper, presented in the format of an experience report, aims to reflect on a geographic education that is aligned with anti-racist educational practices, consequently, decolonial. We believe that discussions regarding spatial production processes play a pivotal role in either perpetuating or subverting the racial ideology pervading Brazilian society. Thus, from the perspective of education as an emancipatory process, an attempt was made to reflect on the practical importance of connecting these discussions in the curricular content of the Geography discipline. The research is grounded in bibliographic research on the education of ethnic-racial relations and the theoretical and practical experiences afforded by Supervised Teaching Internship II course, a curricular component of the Geography Teaching Degree program at the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB). This internship, which took place at the Prof. Anayde Beiriz Municipal School in João Pessoa—PB, Brazil, with an 8th-grade class, addressed the topic of 'Africa: diversity and culture.'The decision to address this theme emanated from discussions on the Ethnic-Racial Relations Education discipline and the Teaching Internship II course. Such interaction reinforces the importance of continuous rumination on teaching practice, highlighting the need for theoretical actions with practical methods and practical experiences with theoretical understanding.
