Dissertação (Mestrado Profissional em Letras) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/52673The resistance and protest songs express realities and experiences that may be similar to those of Youth and Adult Education (from Portuguese, EJA) students, marked by oppression, exclusion and social inequality. These songs are literary manifestations that can go against ideology, serving as a way to challenge the established system. Based on this scenario, the general objective of this work was to work with the textual genre “song” for developing students' reading skills, bringing them closer to blackness. In addition, an intervention project was elaborated for the EJA, in a literary literacy format and in a basic sequence, based on the songs “A Mão da Limpeza” by Gilberto Gil and “A Carne” by Elza Soares. A bibliographic research was elaborated that served as a source for the action research. Research is action research, according to Thiollent, (2011), which uses research techniques to inform the action one decides to take to improve practice. The main theoretical basis was woven with Césaire (1939), Munanga (2003, 2009), Depestre (1980) in relation to discussions of decoloniality; before the song and resistance, we consulted: Costa (2010), Botafogo (2015); Literature and teaching: Lajolo (1989), Pinheiro (2018); Zilberman (2008); on the subject of black literature and the teaching of this literature in Brazil, there was Duarte (2011); Bernd (1988); Compagnon (2009); Cosson (2006, 2020); finally, the intervention project was based on Cosson (2006, 2009), on Graves and Graves (1995). At the end of the sequence, it was believed that the project serves as a source of application of classes for basic education teachers, where there are still practices that hinder the procedure in the socialization and construction of knowledge. The intention is, therefore, to improve the quality of teaching, because in the EJA modality, learning needs to be expressive of the students' lives.Acesso AbertoCanções de resistênciaEducaçãoLetramento literárioNegritudemasterThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::LETRAS
