Por outras revoltas dos quebra-quilos: história da educação matemática em interpelações decoloniais

Abstract

The “Revolta dos Quebra-quilos” (Brazil, 1875-1876) was a popular movement motivated by the population's dissatisfaction with the implementation of a new system of weights and measures by the Imperial government. Currently, resistance like this remains through other struggles. For example, teacher education from the perspective of Rural Education Degree intends to rewrite memories and histories that, in Brazil, (re)exist in different rural territories and that produce political and cultural identifications that escape colonial images. Based on these memories and histories, we present how Mathematics works through coloniality, linking the History of Mathematics Education to the struggle of rural populations. We discuss how the actions of a teacher training course make it possible to value and recognize the voices and educational experiences of the rural population, in a movement of (re)existence against coloniality.
