Abstract
This article presents the importance of research and science from the perspective of African roots as an element to educate ethnic-racial relations and curricula decolonization, either from Basic Education or higher education. It is an approach that will seek to understand the coloniality from the conception of the "Other of Reason", in this case, black women and black men, as promoters, collaborators and executors of epistemologies and African and Afrodiasporic educational practices in the field of education and production of science, i.e. black bodies and mentalities that, while seeking the African roots in different areas of knowledge, construct epistemologies that allow the decolonization of the curricula. This article offers research and educational practices carried out in this perspective, developed by teachers, students in training, among others.
