Abstract

This article addresses coloniality and modernity in social and educational structures, questioning the institutions formed since modernity, based on colonial racism and epistemic sexism. It questions how coloniality impacts the educational structures in Brazil, especially in the teaching of Performing Arts in basic education in the Federal District – where the internship experiences narrated here took place. The theoretical foundation includes authors such as Sueli Carneiro (2005; 2023), Luciana Ballestrin (2013), Ramón Grosfoguel (2016), Jota Mombaça (2016), Antônio Bispo dos Santos (2019), Bell Hooks (2020), Luiz Rufino (2021; 2023), and Érico José Oliveira (2024), among others. The methodology used is a mixed method, combining Bibliographic Research and a case study of (auto) ethnographic and qualitative character to describe internship activities in Performing Arts. Autoethnography is used here (Miranda, 2022) as a counter-hegemonic practice to legitimize stories of "difference," of experiences not seen as dominant, in the first person. Therefore, this article discusses the impacts of coloniality on educational structures in Brazil through autoethnographic narratives, proposing questions and possible paths for non-colonized and anti-racist teaching.
