On the experience of a black teacher teaching in higher (private) education

Abstract

There is no doubt that talking about professional black women implies identity perception, perception of gender, as well as perceptions of race and its consequences with regard to prejudice and discrimination movements relating to this specific group: black woman top-level professional. Now in the racist imagery, the place of the black woman is still in subservience. In this regard, when this woman rises up to break this imagery and expand her boundaries of social belonging, she exposes herself as a target of all this complex Brazilian cultural relationship that makes us racist and we do not consider ourselves responsible for it. Both the macho culture as well as the racist culture which precedes us, is only kept up because in an active or passive way, we reproduce it. We must therefore be aware of our responsibilities in the promotion and continuity of relationships that take away from the other ( the black people) their right and their humanity.
