Black Youth in EJA: The Right to Difference - Natalino Neves da Silva

A compelling exploration of the experiences of Black youth in Brazil's EJA program

In his groundbreaking book, "Black Youth in EJA: The Right to Difference," Natalino Neves da Silva offers a powerful and thought-provoking examination of the experiences of Black youth in Brazil's EJA (Youth and Adult Education) program. Through a combination of personal narratives, statistical analysis, and historical context, Silva paints a vivid picture of the challenges and triumphs faced by these young people as they navigate the complex intersections of race, class, and education in contemporary Brazil.

A call for educational equity and social justice

Silva's book is a powerful call for educational equity and social justice. He argues that the EJA program, while well-intentioned, often falls short in addressing the specific needs and experiences of Black youth. He proposes a number of reforms to the program, including increased funding, improved teacher training, and the development of culturally relevant curricula. These reforms, he argues, are essential to ensuring that Black youth have the opportunity to succeed in school and achieve their full potential.
