Historical education and colonial racist violences: A contribution to debates on historic reparations for Black, Afro-descendant people in Colombia.

Racist violence has deep colonial roots that affect all aspects of life and the repertoires of violences in contexts such as the Colombian contemporary war. In this article, I will construct a woven web at three moments. Through this, I argue that teaching history from historical consciousness in settings such as schools can contribute to necessary social dialogues for processes of historical reparation such as those pertaining to the African diaspora who were victims of the slave trade and are now settled in Colombia. Through this web, I also discuss pedagogies that incorporate categories such as the longue durée, historical consciousness and continuity and change that contribute to restorative, anticolonial and historical reparation processes.
