Diálogos com as publicações científicas a respeito da cultura afro-brasileira na educação física: uma revisão de escopo (Scoping Review)

Abstract

In light of discussions about coloniality of power (Quijano, 2005), the devices of raciality (Carneiro, 2023) and epistemicide (Carneiro, 2023), the present study aimed to identify what has been produced about the dialogue of Afro- Brazilian research in the area of Physical Education based on the mapping of productions in the SCIELO, LILACS, CAPES and ERIC Periodicals databases, over the last 20 years (2003-2023). This is a descriptive-exploratory research with a qualitative approach carried out based on a scoping review following the PRISMA-ScR extension protocol. 72 articles were included in the research that went through Bardin's (2011) categorical content analysis technique and allocated into 4 categories. The present study seeks to expand the dialogue on culture to elucidate its spaces in the area of Physical Education and how Afro-Brazilian culture, based on the struggle trajectories of the black movement, reflects the advances and gaps in dealing with the theme in the area. in question. The results of this research reveal that the area has advanced in discussions on the subject over the years, but that it still occurs in a timid way and restricted to certain blocks of content, as is the case with the predominance of studies on capoeira, football and the dance. However, it appears that the debate about them is still at a superficial level without there being greater depth and discursive complementations based on post-critical theories. The majority of studies are included in reflections on the school environment, especially in the analysis of teaching conception. Another substantial piece of information regarding the gaps found concerns the systematic absences of the topic in initial and continuing training, which reflects the numerous oversights and the continuous lack of knowledge of law 10.639/03. As a privileged area with great potential for dialogues with Afro-Brazilian culture, the findings of this research contribute to the (re)thinking of the long journey that still needs to be covered for significant changes in the area for powerful, consistent and counter-hegemonic dialogue of physical education with Afro-Brazilian culture.
