RESUMO:

This thesis aims to understand the conditions and challenges of teaching Afro-Brazilian children's literature as a support for anti-racist education in elementary public schools. Starting from the understanding that racism constitutes a social structure that also manifests itself in the school environment, the study proposes to reflect on how Afro-Brazilian children's literature can contribute to confronting racism and promoting educational practices committed to recognizing cultural diversity and valuing Black identity, considering literary reading as a formative experience capable of broadening horizons of understanding about oneself, about others, and about the world, and starting from the understanding that the school, as a space for human and social development, plays a decisive role in the construction of more just and inclusive values, identities, and social relations. The work is organized into four main chapters: the first presents the theoretical foundations of anti-racist education, in light of authors such as Nilma Lino Gomes (2001, 2005, 2019), Eliane Cavalleiro (2001, 2012), Petronilha Beatriz Gonçalves e Silva (2005), Kabengele Munanga (2004, 2005, 2015),  and also discusses the relationship between the ideal of universalist humanism, proposed by Antonio Candido (1988, 1999, 2011), and the identity perspectives that emerge from the historical experiences of subaltern groups, in light of authors such as Eduardo de Asis Duarte (2008), Nelly Novaes Coelho (2000), Teresa Colomer (2003), Michele Petit (2008), Roger Chartier (1990), Perrone-Moisés (1990), Regina Zilberman (1988, 2012), and Rildo Cosson (2016). The second chapter analyzes afro-brazilian children's literature as a space for symbolic production, identity affirmation, cultural resistance, and the formation of critical consciousness, considering its role in constructing positive representations of the black population and in amplifying historically silenced voices in the literary field, using as corpus and analytical horizon for this investigation the works Pretinha, eu? (2008) by Júlio Emílio Braz and Cabelo ruim? (2010) by Neusa Baptista Pinto. The third chapter develops an interpretative reading of the selected narratives, highlighting their literary, cultural, and educational meanings, as well as their implications for the formation of readers and for the construction of pedagogical practices committed to racial equity. The fourth and final chapter reflects on the knowledge and teaching practices necessary for the construction of an anti-racist education, taking afro-brazilian youth literature as a privileged pedagogical mediation. Methodologically, the research adopts a qualitative approach of a bibliographic and interpretative nature, seeking to connect theory and practice through the analysis of literary works and studies on teacher education. The results are expected to contribute to strengthening the debate on the implementation of Law 10.639/03, expanding the understanding of the role of afro-brazilian literature as a tool for critical, humanizing, and transformative education.
