"Solta a batida DJ": a utilização do funk no ensino de História

Abstract

This article aims to present a research about the Brazilian musical genre funk, taking into consideration that it is an imported rhythm that became very popular in the artistic manifestations that were born in the favelas of Brazil, and that is still stigmatized by a large amount of the population. Therefore, we intend to demystify pre-existent prejudices, and bring funk closer to the history teaching in public schools. We opted for a bibliographic methodology, within a qualitative approach from an interpretative and reflexive reading of authors such as, Oliveira (2017), Arnodlt (2019), Ribeiro (2018), and Bittencourt (2008).We concluded through this article that the prejudice and marginalization of funk are tied to the roots of racism, and that the use of this rhythm in history lessons is important to the valorization of the local culture, in addition to escaping from traditional education, allowing the entry of an innovative element that would bring together teachers and students through music.
