Abstract
GARCIA RINCON, Jorge Enrique. Education and Resistance: An Epistemic Field Created by the Afro-Colombian Intelligentsia. CS [online]. 2020, n.30, pp.17-45. ISSN 2011-0324. https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i30.3843.
The article deals with the conceptions of education constructed by independent black intellectuals and by the Afro-Colombian social movement in contrast with the state educational project. It is possible to see the emergence of political-pedagogical thinking from the perspective of the black people in different parts of the country. However, the article takes up very concrete experiences of intellectual management led by thinkers such as Diego Luis Córdoba, Manuel Zapata Olivella, Rogerio Velásquez, and Amir Smith Córdoba, among others. At the same time, it analyzes how the intellectuals of own education initiatives in the territories of black communities have contributed to the continuity of the critical discourse on education initiated by thinkers since the first decades of the 20th century. It also considers some ideas of the teachers, community leaders who confronted the State in the very practice of pedagogy for the political identity.
