A Lei 10.639/2003 e a educação das relações étnicoraciais sob o olhar de docentes do curso de licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas da UFMT/CUA

Abstract

Racism in Brazil is a latent and growing problem that perpetuates itself in the difference between classes, in job opportunities, in access to culture and education. The Federal Law 10.639/2003 represents the hope that through education we can train individuals capable of changing this reality. In view of the absence observed in relation to actions for the construction of an anti-racist education in my training journey, this work aims to analyze the perspectives of the teachers of the Biological Sciences teacher training course (UFMT/CUA) regarding the implications of Federal Law No. 10.639 /2003 in the process of teacher training. It is organized in the format of a paper, formatted as directed by the journal SBEnBio, to which we will submit this research. Due to COVID-19, this research was carried out using an online form and for data analysis we used the Content Analysis (CA) method. The results indicate a set of evidence that the course does not meet the demands of the legislation, that there is a need for continuing education on the subject and for a deeper discussion on the relationship between the teaching of biology and sociocultural contexts. We hope that our research will contribute to the improvement of the course studied, aiming to achieve a teaching of biology articulated with the education of ethnic-racial relations, in an anti-racist perspective.
