Educator Black Movement, emancipatory knowledge and the construction of a democratic project

Abstract

This article resumes the discussion about the emancipatory knowledge constructed by the black population, systematized, redefined and disseminated by the Educator Black Movement. Among them, political, identity, aesthetic-corporeal, intersectional and indignation knowledge stand out. The pedagogical and political strength of this social movement and its impact on the process of education and re-education of the State, its institutions, society itself and itself are recognized. This process reflects the continuous action of the Educator Black Movement to transform power structures and redefine ethnic-racial relations. The separation of knowledge presented throughout the article is a didactic and argumentative resource, since, in social life, they manifest themselves in an intertwined and interdependent way. Depending on the context and circumstances in which they operate, some may stand out more than others. Finally, it is argued that the emancipatory knowledge built by the Educator Black Movement in the struggles for democracy proposes a project for a nation that recognizes and values diversity, a project that does not remain silent in the face of racism, that fights for equity, justice and human rights, that rejects the class division imposed by capitalism and that reinforces the importance of a democratic State and the rule of law truly committed to social transformation.
