Abstract
Black Race and Education 30 years later: Now what else do we need to talk about? My story is a reflection of these 30 years of historical struggles of the Black Movement, the advances in terms of rights for black population and the many challenges that we have. Basic education teachers find it difficult to implement law 10.639, which refers to the inclusion of the teaching of African History, racial issues and Afro-Brazilian culture, widely demonized, in the curriculum. Thinking of changes, I decided to create itinerant workshops in schools to address all historical processes of erasure and demonization of Afro-Brazilian religions in the history of Brazil. Thus contributing to an education in which racism and all forms of oppression are deconstructed in the struggle for equality.
