The overall aim of this piece of research is discussing the political role of English language teachers in a state school. The focus is discussing how far the teaching practices adopted by the teacher-researcher can be described as activist, making for critical literacy contexts, citizenship and empowerment of students when working with family as a topic.The participants of the research were nineteen 6th graders at a public school as well as the teacher-researcher. The corpus consists of video recording excerpts which were produced during the lessons in which the teaching material used has been designed by the teacher-researcher. This work subscribes to the area of Critical and Transgressive Applied Linguistics (RAJAGOPALAN, 2003; PENNYCOOK, 2006) and is grounded on the Socio-Historical Cultural Theory (VYGOTSKY 1934 2000). The theorical and methodological framework used was the Critical Collaborative Research (MAGALHAES 1994, 2001, 2012), which characterizes it as interventionist because it focuses on understanding and transforming the participants' actions at school, guided by matters of ethics, empowerment and critical citizenship (MAGALHAES, 2012).As supported by Rajagopalan (2008), this work rejects the notion that the only aim of teaching and learning English is preparing students for a different culture. In this sense, this work brings about a discussion based on the multiliteracies perspective (ROJO, 2009, 2012, KALANTZIS e COPE, 2008, 2013) as it poses questions about teaching choices which take into account the students' socio-historical backgrounds and also questions stemming from the contemporary world.The results show that the teaching practice, based on materials designed by the teacher-researcher, provided a context for citizenship and learning of English through practices relevant to the students' lives as it connects school and society and makes room for active and critical participation
