Brinquedos e brincar na vida de mulheres educadoras negras

Abstract

This article discusses the play and the toy in the constitution of black women by school education practices, basic education, public and private. School practices should examine the production and reproduction of behavioral and aesthetic standards, which operate negative discrimination of gender relations and racial. In the survey were used as methodological resources: the oral history through life stories and recorded and transcribed interviews with eight women, African teachers in Salvador (BA). It was conducted literature and literature review. Analyses were performed by the content analysis, from the following categories: memories, relationships with current and professional practices related to gender and racism at school. The toy and the game appeared as racism analyzers and gender stereotypes in education, resulting in the suffering of children. Curriculum adaptation is suggested in schoolwork, considering the promotion of educational equity.
