Abstract

The present work is aimed at dealing with education for ethnic-racial relations, focusing on the analysis of the speeches of the students of the Extension Course "Education Strategies for Ethnic-Racial Relations in the midst of the COVID-19 Pandemic", financed by the Dean of Extension and Culture of the Federal University of Rio Grande (PROEXC-FURG). In this wake, the speeches of the course participants serve as a basis for understanding how to formulate a debate about an educational practice with an anti-racist bias. Authors such as Petronilha Gonçalves e Silva, Nilma Lino Gomes and José Antônio dos Santos, present concepts that are fundamental for the understanding of cultural, social and political elements, constant in different teaching spaces. From a videoclass of the aforementioned Extension Course, related to the black press and abolitionist clubs, a task was proposed for the students. Through the observation of this activity, which questioned students about the importance of the press for the development of an anti-racist education, the objective is to observe the student's view of ethnic-racial relations. The course was held from September to December 2020, and brought a realistic portrait of the students' perceptions; which, in times of a pandemic, could perceive the contributions of journalism (historically speaking) and also in the current period, in view of the ethnic-racial elements and the need for discussion related to them.
