The current education system in Brazil is homogenizing, in the sense of disregarding diversity, thus representing a challenge to deal with differences within the classroom, as it is also in society. Freedom of worship is required by law, but religious intolerance persists in our society. The multiplicity of religious practices stands out because Brazilian cultural diversity is a mark of our social constitution. Thus, the importance of discussing religious intolerance towards the religions of the African matrix for the construction of respect for difference and freedom of worship is justifiable. Considering the role of education in elucidating this debate, we propose in this work to understand the absence of the themes that approach African religions in school and how this is a reflection of the social and cultural relations of Brazilian society, considering the importance of promoting respect and recognition of religious diversity in that country. Discussing these religions in the classroom is challenging as cultural and social racism permeates these issues. Our objective in this work is to investigate the representation of high school students, a public school of the state education network of Paraíba, in History classes about African-born religions and how they stand in relation to these religious practices. We will use as theoretical reference the concepts of culture place with Michel de Certeau (2005), representation with Roger Chartier (1990), identity based on Stuart Hall (1993) and on Afro-Brazilian religions and teaching with Nilma Lino Gomes (2000 ). It is a qualitative research of the research-action type. As research instruments, questionnaires were developed and applied. Our product is the realization of lectures and workshops of production of text and drawing so that we can debate the theme of this research in the context of the classroom, thus promoting the knowledge about Afro-Brazilian history.
