DIMINUINDO O PRECONCEITO INDÍGENA LEVANDO AS VOZES INDÍGENAS: ANÁLISE LIVRO “QUANDO EU CAÇAVA TATU E OUTROS BICHOS”

Abstract

Indigenous racial prejudice is still a problem in society and, therefore, in education in Brazil. The deconstruction of prejudice through various practices, including school ones, must be done from a very early age so that Brazil reaches a minimum standard of citizenship and inclusion. Although there is a law that determines the theme in the classroom, it is still a very little explored theme in elementary education, leaving only the high school teacher in charge, often only in the sociology class, to try to deconstruct prejudices, but at this age prejudices would already be naturalized and rooted in the student's culture. It is necessary to start the deconstruction from early childhood education. The intention of this study is to point out a problem that is still very common in early childhood education. We believe that by bringing the indigenous voice into the classroom, through a book by an indigenous educator, this prejudice will be reduced.
