THE COMMISSIONS ON ETHNIC-RACIAL HETEROIDENTIFICATIONS AT UFRRJ UNDERGRADUATION: A CASE STUDY
Keywords: Affirmative Actions; Federal Law 12,711/2012; Racial quotas; Heteroidentification
In this Master's text presented to the Postgraduate Program in Education, Contemporary Contexts and Popular Demands, at the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro, I present the relationship between education, Black Social Movements and Affirmative Actions through the applicability of Law 12,711/ 2012 as amended by Law 13,409/2012. In this space I characterize the relationship between education, black social movements and public affirmative action policies. We discussed the possibility of continuous monitoring of these public policies in light of the results achieved by their effectiveness. This research is anchored to data collected from different procedures such as theoretical and conceptual review of ethnic-racial relations and document analysis, through the investigation of interfaces established at UFRRJ. In this sense, the composition of participants chosen for hetero-identification committees, managers and incoming students self-declared as mixed race or black, stands out as an object of study. As a methodology, I carried out a bibliographic and documentary review, with structured interviews with managers of the UFRRJ academic area, with the coordinators and members of the hetero-identification committees and self-declared entrants to higher access to the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro. We used the qualitative method as a methodological approach, considering the subjectivity that this research involves. As a theoretical foundation, we are based mainly on the authors Munanga (2004), Nilma Lino Gomes (2005; 2012), Quijano (1999), Petrônio Domingues (2007), Hasenbalg (1982), Hall (2003) , Siss (2003, 2005, 2012), Fernandes (2016). I highlight the importance of this research in strengthening the anti-racist struggle and as a reaffirmation and defense of racial quotas, identifying them as one of the paths to conquering spaces for the black population through a segregationist society.
