SUMMARY:

Yaguarãboya swims for Ominaye

Yaguarãboya is the jaguar woman with the tail of a serpent and a mythological being of the Maraguá ethnic group - originally from the Abacaxis River region, in the Amazon. In the tales of this People, a woman becomes an “animal” feared by all when she has broken rules. Ominayê is a word in Yoruba that means “all the waters of the world” or “all the rivers of the world”, a reference to the mythology of Oxum and how it is represented in everything that has life. The combination of these spells, one from Abya Yala do Sul (“Southern America”) and another from Africa, summarizes the paths of this dissertation. It translates the strength we need to use to face the difficulties of exercising an anti-racist education as educators in the face of a curriculum that is still Eurocentric. Finally, a racist and prejudiced curriculum that is still practiced in the Municipal Education Network in São Paulo, despite the laws and programs in force with the intention of complying with Law 11.645/2008. Difficulties that increase even more because we are mostly women educators. It was from some indigenous cosmovisions that I guided the experiences that will be narrated in our work. I have been a Teacher of Early Childhood Education and Elementary School I since 2011 and currently work in the Sala e Espaços de Leitura Program at E.M.E.F. Pedro Fukuyei Yamaguchi Ferreira, region of São Miguel Paulista (eastern periphery of São Paulo). Since 2016 I have been part of the "Jogo da Onça and other indigenous games" team at the Regional Board of Education of São Miguel Paulista. I am co-founder of Coletivo Leste Negra, which was born from the school community in search of counter-colonizing educational practices. In this sense, my dissertation narrates and makes reflections from these pedagogical practices built in the school routine in one of the outskirts of the East Zone - Original Territory of Ururay. The idea is to encourage how much the presence of indigenous histories/cultures is in the memories and identities of children and their families who live on the outskirts of São Paulo. For this, I start from some cosmovisions of the Indigenous Peoples where the jaguar represents a symbol of resistance. It would be like thinking about “Urban Jaguars crossing the Rivers of Ururay”.
