Trajetória de formação de uma estudante negra universidade.

Abstract

The present work sought to approach the theme of the formation trajectory of a black student at the university from the narrative as a theoreticaI-methodological perspective. Then, a research is carried out using the autobiographical method, in order to investigate the challenges of racial discrimination in the trajectory of formation of a black student from my own narrative. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss education and inequality based on experiences and memories about the process of choosing the course, motivation and admission to the university, identifying the subtleties of racism and its influences on the trajectory of academic training and understanding admission and permanence at university and its importance in the affirmation of black identity, considering my quota status. In view of this, it appears that a student did not feel encouraged by the majority of people who were part of her social and family context to enter the university due to her socioeconomic condition, experiences of racism in her trajectory impaired her mental health and consequently her student performance and her greatest incentive to stay at the university was to reaffirm her potential as a black woman and through greater possibilities to contribute as an agent of transformation in the educational field. Noting that the racism faced by black students reflects significantly on their professional teaching identity.
