SUMMARY:

This research project focuses on the analysis of racial constructions in the English Language Textbook (ILT), specifically in the JOY! book, adopted by the Brazilian Federal Government, in the light of Law 10.639/03, which establishes the compulsory teaching of African and Afro-Brazilian history and culture in schools. The research aims to investigate how LDIs construct and represent cultural and racial identities, especially African and Afro-Brazilian identities, and how these representations influence the formation of a critical and inclusive identity in students, based on the parameters of this legislation. The research will be carried out in two classes of the Integrated Agriculture and Livestock Technical Course at the Federal Institute of Goiás (IFGoiano), Morrinhos Campus. The methodology adopted combines document analysis and field research with an initial questionnaire, focus group and comprehensive interview - based on the “Talking about texts” approach. The documentary analysis will focus on how the book JOY! deals with racial issues, while the field research will assess students' perceptions and experiences of the content covered in the teaching material. The research adopts an integrated theoretical approach, which includes critical literacy, decolonial knowledge, the theory of voices in discourse and the theory of performativity.Critical literacy will make it possible to analyze IDLs as instruments for constructing social and cultural meanings, questioning how pedagogical practices influence students' perceptions of race. Based on decolonial knowledge, the aim is to understand how textbooks can reflect and reinforce colonial paradigms, marginalizing African and Afro-Brazilian cultures. The theory of voices in discourse and the theory of performativity, in turn, will offer perspectives for understanding how racial identities are constructed and activated in LDI, both in explicit representations and in everyday interactions in the classroom. The main objectives of the research include analyzing racial representations in LDI, evaluating whether the JOY! book complies with Law 10.639/03, and investigating the pedagogical impact of these representations on students. We also hope to identify pedagogical practices that promote anti-racist and inclusive education, in line with Law 10.639/03. The research also aims to contribute to the construction of a fairer curriculum that values Afro-Brazilian and African cultures, breaking with stereotypes and promoting an education that respects and celebrates cultural and racial diversity.
