Orí-docente e a educação das relações étnico raciais: cruzos e possibilidades nas narrativas da docência no ensino superior.

Abstract

This research brought together many propositions, among them, announcing pedagogical practices, starring teaching narratives based on the crosses and possibilities in higher education. It was problematic to investigate - How do teachers enhance bodily experiences and memories in the teaching of ethnic-racial relations? The general objective was to analyze how educational experiences contributed to the construction of teaching identities. And in specifics - Identify which knowledge and bridges enhanced their decolonial and Afro-centered education practices. And then, announce how the knowledge and training experiences of these teachers configure teaching possibilities in the education of ethnic-racial relations. The research unfolded through a qualitative approach mediated by elements of the narrative research methodology, using the intersections and possibilities announced by the narratives of the participating teachers as data analysis markers. The understanding devices used to produce data were literature review, documentary research, analysis of theses produced by participating teachers, and analyzes marked by principles of oral history (narrative interviews via audio). Regarding the subjects, they are university professors, from PPGE UFBA-FACED-GRUPO HCEL, working in the curricular component Education of ethnic-racial relations. In doing so, we carry out an epistemological dialogue between decoloniality and Afrocentricity, as these present themselves as a possibility in deconstructing the Cartesian perspective of research. As a result, we evidence that our teaching choices and practices reveal the crossroads of our identities, experiences and affections, which contributes to a decolonial and Afro-centered education in higher education. Thus, I affirm that for an education on ethnic-racial relations to be possible, an Orí-teacher committed to the ways of combating racism and its pacts in education is necessary.
