Among the main slave forms of resistance developed by Africans and their descendants to the Brazilian slave system, there is the quilombos. Understood as collective spaces of freedom and the political projects grounded in more autonomy, they were examples of societies, which maintain expressive ties with African traditions. In traditional quilombos, it was possible the mix of many cultural aspects (religions, beliefs, customs, social organization, and other African-diasporic elements that still remain in many of our contemporary quilombos. With the slavery Abolition in Brazil, there was not a public policy worried in integrating who were recently freed to the national society. However, more currently, through struggles and demands of the Black Social Movement, some social rights were won, in particular, the Article 68 of the ADCT, the Law number 10.639/03 and the Resolution number 8, by November 20th 2012. In this perspective, starting from theories about the formation of quilombos in Brazil and from the new historiography that points Africans and blacks protagonisms, this text brings fundamental reflections about the real possibility of the quilombola culture aspects being present in the Brazilian Basic Education, through the African and African-Brazilian History in the regular curriculum and the conjugation of meanings.
