LITERATURA AFRO-BRASILEIRA NA ESCOLA: LETRAMENTO RACIAL E AFROLETRAMENTO COMO INSTRUMENTO DE FORMAÇÃO ANTIRRACISTA.

This article deals with the relationship between the use of Afro-Brazilian Literature at school as a resource for the development of racial literacy and Afro-literacy. Seeking to relate both concepts (racial literacy and afro-literacy) with practices related to the social use of language, it also proposes their relationship with an anti-racist education, as a way of valuing the Brazilian Afro-descendant identity and fighting prejudice and discrimination.
