Living in a country where hangs the myth of racial democracy, combating racism is also reflect on our own values, beliefs and behaviors. Thus, consisting of Institutional Pedagogy see, add and manage conflict breaks the silence of racism in school, favoring his match through its theoretical foundations. This text highlights the possibilities presented by the Institutional Pedagogy to combat racial discrimination in school that children, youth, adults and seniors are objects. So we can say that the Institutional Pedagogy presents itself as a possibility of mediation to build a society with social justice, the place where the threshold, law and language lead to a land of fairness and respect.
