ABSTRACT
From the concerns raised during the subject Education and Society in the doctorate of the Postgraduate Program in Education of the Universidade Federal do Piauí, we were instigated to expand the discussions woven with the experiences of the quilombola communities of Barro Vermelho and Contente in Paulistana, Piauí, Brazil (2018-2019). Thus, we aimed to understand which and how the educational experiences involving practices of quilombola organization and constitution build the “spirit” of community (SOMÉ, 2003) amid the discourses of coloniality-modernity in quilombos in Paulistana. For this, we dialogued with the sayings of Bader Sawaia (2001), Carlos Brandão (2009) and Paulo Freire and Sérgio Guimarães (2011) and their implications and educational practices that “teach to be people”. The narratives directed to the knowledge and actions of the communities that describe the relationship with/on the land through a symbology of belonging and construction of the quilombola being.
