In 2008, the children's dystopia The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins was released, a work that would influence a literary and audiovisual trend of dystopias produced for a mostly young audience, mostly starring women. And in cinema, more specifically, by white women. In this work, it is in this specific context that we analyze the protagonist Michele (Bianca Comparato), from the Brazilian series 3% (2016-2020). We analyzed the construction of its profile, highlighting the marks of patriarchal precepts and their relationships with the representation of resistance movements. The work was chosen because it was the first entirely Brazilian production by the streaming company Netflix and, consequently, because of its wide audience. The series is being studied from its production and launch context – with occasional comparisons with other dystopias and the female profiles of its protagonists – based on feminist gender theories, especially those of bell hooks (2019) and Audre Lorde (2019) and other contemporary authors. Finally, we analyze the work from the perspective of theoretical studies on whiteness and its mechanisms for maintaining power, by authors such as Linda Alcoff (2015), Cida Bento (2022), Lia Vainer (2012) and Françoise Vergès (2019) , because in this study it was possible to notice that audiovisual dystopias starring female and, mainly, white figures, have gained strength in recent years as a trend in productions made for large circulation and commercialization, being marked by representations of less radical resistance. Therefore, the work presented here will seek to highlight that despite the context of representation of resistance, the maintenance of certain aspects of the status quo is still noticeable in the narrative.

This work brings as its theme the teaching of history and its relationship with the historical memory and identity of black people. This is a research focused on the teaching of History, Having been developed in a state public school in the municipality, These people are Youth and Adult Education students (EJA). Dialogues in history classes revealed the existence of an official memory of the city that erases black people from local history. From this problem, We hypothesize that local official memory compromises the construction of a positive identity among black populations. The time frame refers to the date of creation of Law 10,639/2003, until 2023. After these twenty years, we want to know how the school we investigated worked on ethnic-racial issues during this period. To support the discussions and analyses, we brought to the debate the concepts of memory (RICOEUR, 2007; CAMILO, 2020; MISSIATTO, 2021; NORA, 1993), whiteness (SILVA, 2017; MIRANDA, 2017; BENTO, 2022) and blackness. (MUNANGA, 2012), seeking to understand identity issues that arise among black people, from the idea of power expressed in whiteness. Based on this analysis, We aim to encourage students to critically reflect on their place in the context of the identity of the black population of Benevides, shedding light on the architecture of the power of whiteness and strengthening the power of blackness. The research brings with it a qualitative methodology, with emphasis on oral history, in ethnographic research methods and documentary analysis. As a result, We propose the creation of an educational brochure on the history of abolition in Benevides and its reflections in the present, providing another perspective on this historical episode.
