SUMMARY:

This dissertation aims to analyze the possibilities of using and developing comic book sequential arts as builders of black representativeness in the classroom through workshops to be held in the Elective subject with a 7th-grade class of Middle School II. To this end, we seek to understand how black representativeness that develops in the school environment, thus seeking to value, observe, and produce materials that corroborate these representativeness in light of the reality of the educational space seeking its valorization. We take into consideration the Eurocentric character inherent to formal educational processes; which reflects in the negative experience felt by many black students of not feeling positively represented at school, nor in the didactic materials, experiencing in a traumatic way their identity, cultural, and social characteristics considered deviant from the hegemonic Eurocentric standards, as well as non- black students without understanding and perpetuation of racist practices, both inside and outside of school. In this sense, we rely on theoretical and artistic references that will help us understand the broad concept of Afrocentricity, seeking to weave considerations around the Brazilian context, aiming still at the transformative power of Afrocentric perspectives as strategies for ancestral, historical, and collective resistance and confrontation of the black people in Brazil and the world. We continue such discussion in defense of the pedagogical use of Comic Book Sequential Arts in education and their competencies against Afrocentric concepts. Frequently, the dissertation seeks to follow the epistemic precepts of action-research, which has been developed with a 7th-grade class of Middle School II from a State School located in the city of Igarassu (PE), where it is intended to follow investigation stages that take into account the reality of this school ambiance, seeking to identify the spaces and times conducive to strategies of valorization, reflection, and action around the confrontation of oppressions with the pedagogical aid of Comic Books in consonance with the teaching of Afro- Brazilian history and culture, as required by Law No. 10.639/03.
