Structural racism eflexes in the educational system of the City of Bananal-SP
Law 10.639/03 and Law 11.645/08 - Education in the city of Bananal-SP - Afro-Brazilian History and Culture
The aim of this research is to analyze structural racism and the consequences of segregation in the educational system, specifically in the second cycle of elementary school, in the city of Bananal-SP. In order to get to the educational area of Bananal society today, it is necessary to look around and understand the social characteristics of the municipality's history. In this way, I investigated (based on interviews, documentary analysis and on-site research) the structure of the city, from its physical aspects, through the housing organization of the residents, the privileged groups and the cultural characteristics of the population, to the way in which the municipality´s education reflects the values considered relevant by its inhabitants and continues to propagate, from its structure, the reflections of racism. The intention is to contribute to the re-signification of stories, encouraging anti-racist practices, guided by Laws 10.639/03 and 11.645/08 and the DCNERERs, as well as encouraging more reflection among people, in order to overcome social prejudices. As a result, it is hoped that the privileges of the city's wealthy and white population will be drastically reduced, so that a more harmonious and just society can be created
