Our work is justified, for seeking in Geography another tool of this fight, for its potential in the valorization of Africa. Part of the understanding that there is a racist social behavior in everyday life, we will study how the African continent is portrayed in all our research, content and specific competences of our National Curricular Common Base (BNCC) research. To this end, we will address part of the trajectory of racism in Brazil, following the analysis of how Africa is presented in the prescribed school curriculum, through the geographical discipline. Comparing the perspectives used to treat the other continents, the posts as central and those used in the treatment of the themes for the references to the African continent. We will also bring an innovative experience of the discipline Teaching African, Afro-Brazilian Culture and Instruction (EHCAI), History in 2021 in the municipal education network of Magé / RJ. From ideas of colonial racism, between decolonial and anti-racist bases, such as ideas of colonial racism and power, colonial Eurocentrism, structural modern world-system, de-Africanization, and socio-racial hierarchy, we aim to understand the From what African premises based on the invisibility of everyday culture and the presence of non-whites at school. Through a bibliographic review and analysis of legal documents, references to curricular prescriptions, references to curricular prescriptions, references to our discussions and subsequent analysis of BNCC excerpts. Where the important themes for the appreciation of the references used to Africa are proposed. Aiming to criticize what the text of the law presents, so that there is a minimally balanced thematic reference between the continents. As a result of this work, it seems that the whitening and exclusion of these bodies can be observed in different ways in our daily lives, from the logic of curriculum construction to the consolidation of current power structures, being, at the same time, the same racism.
