Abstract

This paper addresses the repercussions in the media of the process of the obligatory implementation of Law 10.639/03 in the curricula of elementary and high schools in the State of Bahia. After clippage, certain reports published in two of Salvador’s most significant electronic journals, ibahia and A Tarde on-line, were examined. These highlight the situation of schools in Bahia in the context of the Bahia Public Prosecutor’s office inspection of enforcement of the law, which created a tense, interventionist situation. This paper proposes a reflection on the episode, showing that the social and racial inequality reproduced in the school remains unchanged. In addition, it suggests a reflection on the importance of combating all forms of discrimination and prejudice both within and beyond the school, factors addressed by the mainstream media as a reflex of Law 10.639/03.
