Main Article Content

Abstract

This article shares a theoretical discussion, linked to a doctoral research, about the epistemic and political meanings of knowledge production, in the area of education, managed by black intellectuals in the academy around black children and their childhoods. The approaches to Ethnic-Racial Relations in Brazil, Black Feminism and Sociology of Childhood were the conceptual references through which we transit. At the end of the work, we understand that Brazilian black women and intellectuals when choosing black children and childhoods as subjects of life in the academy produce ethically and ethnically engaged research. In other words, intellectuals articulate around black children, at the same time, a political, social and academic performance with a view to building other worlds and other ways of being.
