O samba e o rap como espaços de palavralização afrodescendente

Abstract

This research was based on the necessity of insertion of afrodescendant historical-cultural elements in the Portuguese Language classes of the elementary school, since it still faces numerous difficulties in introducing theses aspects into its practices, that goes against what is established in Law 10639/03. Therefore, we elaborate an intervention proposal based on the Basic Sequence, formulated by Rildo Cosson (20014), which was developed in an adapted way in a 9th grade class from a school in Duas Estradas, Paraíba. We worked with the discursive genre Lyrics inserted in the music genres Samba and Rap based on the Jackson do Pandeiro and Mano Brown productions. They emphasize the afrodescendent subject and issues related to space that is guaranteed to them as a way of anunciation and identificationand, they are also a kind of subvertion to repression and exclusion pratices in the social circle. The objectives were to formulate spaces for the recognition and appreciation of the African inheritances that were essential for the formation of Brazilian society, to arouse in students the sensitivity caused by otherness, as well as to enable the development of critical awareness and autonomy. Data was generated from recorded dialogues, written productions, reading, and other relevant procedures to the analysis. As a theoretical basis, we approach the conceptions of Bakhtin (1997) and Marcuschi (2008), who conceive language through a dialogical perspective, we were guided by the perceptions of Hall (2009) to understand the concepts of culture and identity, we considered the studies of Munanga (2005), Santos (2016), Lopes (2015), who discussed ethnic-racial issues, and in discussions about the social character of literacy practices in Rojo (2009) e Souza (2011), and others. The activities developed resulted in the expansion of world perceptions related to equity, respect and tolerance.
