Education of Ethnic-Racial Relations: historiography of the creation, execution, implementation of Law 10.639/2003 and other perspectives on Human Rights

Abstract

Ethnic-Racial Relations Education (ERER) is a program of "black intelligence" (MBEMBE, 2005) that acts in a more or less interdependent manner across categories of human rights (education, work, culture, religion, rights, black social organizations, etc.). ERER has its specificities and generalities, but when viewed from a panoramic perspective, it can be understood as an anti-racist tactic and knowledge that forms and strengthens in its different dimensions, also predominantly autonomously, but always in conjunction with its African axis – such as Candomblé (OLIVEIRA, 2021c). This study presents Law 10.639/2003 from a triple perspective: i) from the perspective of social movements; ii) in the form of state actions; iii) in the consequences that the recommended law triggers in dimensions beyond formal school education. In summary, ERER seeks to understand a historical process of the racial issue, taking Law 10.639/03 as a starting point.
