R.E.P.: Ritmo Educação e Poesia: as potencialidades do rap enquanto sujeito produtor nas aulas de História

Abstract

This work was developed in conjunction with rap as a theoretical reference, recognizing its epistemology and the ability to give voice to marginalized people. With its roots in African ancestry, the hip hop movement that became popular in the United States and arrived in Brazil in the mid-80s brought a new actor in the urban dynamics by increasingly opening space for the marginalized to reflect on their role in society and the forces acting on them. The main objectives of this work are: to share experiences about working with rap in the classroom with other professionals and interested parties on the subject, to value the hip hop movement as a means for people to better understand the reality in which they live and thus change it, to assist the student in seeing rap as a means of reflecting on their pains, anxieties, dreams, putting into practice the ideals of a liberating and inclusive education, to encourage the expansion of the creative and intellectual capacity of these students through music production. The methodology of this dissertation was based on a critical analysis of a set of activities carried out together with rap, implemented in different social contexts and with various processes.
