Entre Brasil e África
Em Entre Brasil e África: construindo conhecimento e militância, o sentido profundo do percurso individual decorre do seu imbricamento com os destinos de outros sujeitos, de diferentes paisagens sociais. Atenta a isso, Petronilha Gonçalves ultrapassa as fronteiras do seu (nosso) território geográfico, linguístico, histórico e cultural para nos dar a ver, em toda a sua complexidade, a experiência de ser mulher negra brasileira. Soma-se a isso o fato de que as vivências e percepções forjadas além-fronteira aguçam na autora a consciência sobre os valores e os dilemas da realidade brasileira e latino-americana que a viu nascer.
Entre Brasil e África

Anthropologies of Education
Despite international congresses and international journals, anthropologies of education differ significantly around the world. Linguistic barriers constrain the flow of ideas, which results in a vast amount of research on educational anthropology that is not published in English or is difficult for international readers to find. This volume responds to the call to attend to educational research outside the United States and to break out of “metropolitan provincialism.” A guide to the anthropologies and ethnographies of learning and schooling published in German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Slavic languages, Japanese, and English as a second language, show how scholars in Latin America, Japan, and elsewhere adapt European, American, and other approaches to create new traditions. As the contributors show, educators draw on different foundational research and different theoretical discussions. Thus, this global survey raises new questions and casts a new light on what has become a too-familiar discipline in the United States.
Citizenship Education and Global Migration
This groundbreaking book describes theory, research, and practice that can be used in civic education courses and programs to help students from marginalized and minoritized groups in nations around the world attain a sense of structural integration and political efficacy within their nation-states, develop civic participation skills, and reflective cultural, national, and global identities.
The Scramble for the Amazon and the "Lost Paradise" of Euclides da Cunha
The fortunes of the late nineteenth century’s imperial and industrial powers depended on a single raw material—rubber—with only one source: the Amazon basin. And so began the scramble for the Amazon—a decades-long conflict that found Britain, France, Belgium, and the United States fighting with and against the new nations of Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil for the forest’s riches. In the midst of this struggle, Euclides da Cunha, engineer, journalist, geographer, political theorist, and one of Brazil’s most celebrated writers, led a survey expedition to the farthest reaches of the river, among the world’s most valuable, dangerous, and little-known landscapes. The Scramble for the Ama...
Diversity and Citizenship Education
The increasing ethnic, racial, cultural, religious, and language diversity in nations throughout the world is forcing educators and policymakers to rethink existing notions of citizenship and nationality. To experience cultural democracy and freedom, a nation must be unified around a set of democratic values such as justice and equality that balance unity and diversity and protect the rights of diverse groups. Diversity and Citizenship Education: Global Perspectives brings together in one comprehensive volume a group of international experts on the topic of diversity and citizenship education. These experts discuss and identify the shared issues and possibilities that exist when educating fo...
Black Education
This volume presents the findings and recommendations of the American Educational Research Association's (AERA) Commission on Research in Black Education (CORIBE) and offers new directions for research and practice. By commissioning an independent group of scholars of diverse perspectives and voices to investigate major issues hindering the education of Black people in the U.S., other Diaspora contexts, and Africa, the AERA sought to place issues of Black education and research practice in the forefront of the agenda of the scholarly community. An unprecedented critical challenge to orthodox thinking, this book makes an epistemological break with mainstream scholarship. Contributors present ...
In the enchantment of the birdies
In the Enchantment of the birdies - songs to chant, dance, play, and frolic is an audiovisual book, with many songs, paintings, and birds. The beauty of the songs of Brazilian birds became the theme for this artistic project, composed of watercolors by Solange Lopes, texts by Ilza Zenker Joly, and arrangements and scores by Lucas Joly and Vinicius Sampaio. Thus, there are songs from Brazilian popular culture, musical arrangements that gave new colors and rhythms to these songs, as well as beautiful illustrations that help to get to know the protagonists of the book better: the birdies. Each small chapter addresses a song, brings the score, the illustration of the bird, and even information about the musical style, about the habits of the bird, and suggests an activity to be developed with the song. The songs are interpreted by artists from São Carlos and the region. It is a book for children, teens, adults, parents, grandparents, and educators. Maxixes, guarânias, Brazilian waltzes, samba, reggae, rock, and other musical styles show the beauty of birds and Brazilian culture.
Literary Passion, Ideological Commitment
This study examines Afro-Cuban and Afro-Brazilian women writers, as well as analysing the roles of women of African descent in Cuban and Brazilian literature. Initially, literary imagination locked women into circumscribed roles, a result of hierarchies embedded in slavery and colonialism, and sustained by hierarchical theories on race and gender.The discussion illustrates how these negative aspects have influenced the mainstream literary imagination that contrasts with the 'self-portrayals' created by women writers themselves. Even as there continues to be disadvantageous constructions, there is no doubt that a modification has occurred over time in images, representation, and articulation. It is a change directly associated with the instances when women themselves are the writers.The historiographic image of the Afro-Cuban and Afro-Brazilian woman as a written object is ideologically replaced by a vision of her as a writing subject. It is here that the vision of a creative, multifaceted, and diversified literature becomes important.
