Pedagogy of Ancestry: ways to decolonize the school through female indigenous literature
female indigenous literature, ancestry, pedagogy, decoloniality.
The research outlines possible paths to identify a Pedagogy of Ancestry and its knowledge in indigenous female literature. Objectives: (a) create a theoretical corpus that combines knowledge inherent to indigenous female literature with the curricular contents of basic education; (b) analyze and reject stereotypes, common sense readings, about the indigenous experience; (c) identify critical thinking of indigenous authors. Methodological strategies: (a) gender perspective taking into account the epistemological erasure of indigenous women who had their writings made invisible by Brazilian editorial logic. (b) collection of data that prove the absence of female indigenous literature within the official paradidactic selections of basic education (c) analysis of the Principles of the National Curricular Guidelines for Ethnic-racial Education (CNE-2004 - law 10.639/03 and law 11.645 /08 that amended LDBN 9394/1996), as a contribution to teacher training. Theoretical foundations: Cusicanqui (2010), Smith (2021) and Walsh (2015) discuss the influence of colonial thinking on our practices and point out strategies of decoloniality through resistance, under a pact of struggle and social transformation. Results: based on the writings of these indigenous women, it is expected to present pedagogical and social learning knowledge that contributes to inclusive, intercultural and decolonizing pedagogical practices.
