Abstract
: Brazilian racism generates losses and damages in people's lives and, often, this is not discussed in higher education in fashion, as well as in social educational spaces. This text is one of the fruits of a research in the area of Education, which was carried out as an educational practice that interfered in the Higher Course in Fashion Design Technology at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Piauí (IFPI), Teresina Zona Sul Campus (CTZS), at the Memorial Esperança Garcia educational space in 2019, and culminated with an Afro Fashion show based on the experiences of the Atelier de Moda Afro. Nineteen students participated in the research. Only two stories were chosen because they were representative of the group's feeling. We dialogued with authors such as Lélia Gonzalez (1984) and Paulo Freire (1979; 2011). In the dialogical analysis of this educational intervention practice, we perceive ten types of bodies narrated in moments in the two participants’ lives that coincide with Brazilian racist practices and their overcoming.
