Opis

This research seeks to bring elements to understand Capoeira as the cultural capital of Afro-Brazilian people, with the proposal to use this culture as a condition for enabling and promoting citizenship for young black people, who have been and continue to be stigmatised in Brazilian society. Thus, the cultural capital transmitted in the sphere of school and university education would be a transfiguring agent of subalternity and would make it possible to recognise identity through contact with the history of the African people's diaspora. Considering that the expressions of the social question are multifaceted and that it is inherent in the capoeira debate and intrinsically linked to the racial debate and racism, it is a challenge for the Social Worker who, by resorting to Afro-Brazilian culture, through pedagogical learning would enable Afro-citizenship and the breaking down of alienation and thus demobilise the oppressive ideology imposed by the dominant. The use of capoeira would safeguard and valorise the Afro-Brazilian cultural heritage, capoeira, and also safeguard its heirs - young black people.
