Representações sócio-discursivas e identitárias no espaço escolar: etnias no con(texto)

Abstract

The city of Dourados represents a complex mix of people from different regions of the country and the world. This complex blend the city offers a rich socio-cultural, linguistic and ethnic mostly. This way, we intend to investigate how language mediates discursive social relations about the black man in the school environment, knowing that interethnic relations are always complex and in them and through them, to "hide" the relations of power. This study aimed to examine the issues of power and ideologies that are involved in use of language with respect to black man as well as your relationship with the identity formation of black students or african descent. In the school environment there are shock forces that seek to determine the positions. The black man is positioned socially through language that refers to it. Teachers and students usually reproduce that see in the snack bar, on the television or at home. Are building their identity and determining in what way must be constructed the identity of others, Woodward (2007). In this way, discussions about identity, difference, race prejudice and stereotypical language orientated this work. Also we propose to think about the possibility of a ruled education in looking about the other and in the responsibility to each other. We make use concepts of Critical Discourse Analysis, whose principles are guided by the social interactions and language and a sense of social and political commitment to social causes. The racism still hide in many forms. In the context in question we observe that racial issues are generally attributed to problems of indiscipline or family. We also observed that school presents difficulty in dealing with situations of racism, in view of the mistaken conceptions about the black man history in Brazil. Other important point is the naturalization of racism through jokes told by both students and professors so that characterize them as "play" and not insults .
