A PERCEPÇÃO DOS LICENCIANDOS DE CIÊNCIAS E BIOLOGIA E O CAMPO DAS RELAÇÕES ÉTNICO-RACIAIS.

Brazil is a structurally racist country, this means stating that the racism it is in diferente instiutions that make up society, including school. Thus, combating racism needs to be an education agenda, to achieve this, the field of Ethnic-Racial needs to be systematically presente in the degree courses, including Science and Biology. Considering this, this research aims to analyze the initial training of undergraduates in Biological Sciences at a state university in the south of Bahia for the debate on Ethnic-Racial Relations. Data were collected from dialogues with undergraduates in formative meetings, and the analysis was based on the Discursive Textual Analysis methodology. The results indicate that they feel they need more preparation to articulate the contents of their areas with Ethnic-Racial Relations, mainly because this approach is outside their initial formation. However, they are favorable once this discussion is made and find insertion possibilities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
