A problemática centra-se em responder como a escola pública de Dom Feliciano, com ênfase na disciplina de Geografia, trabalha com a diversidade cultural dos alunos. Para isso teve na Escola Estadual de Ensino Fundamental e Médio Dom Feliciano seu contexto investigativo, por constituir um espaço que abriga alunos oriundos de todas as localidades do município. Dessa forma foi possível caracterizar a diversidade cultural dos alunos, através de sua representatividade, manifestada na religião, linguagem, etnia e hábitos culturais, abordando também a sua origem, no caso, rural ou urbano. O direcionamento da pesquisa enfocou-se em analisar como acontece na escola a interação com os hábitos de culturas diferentes, verificando se existem preconceitos e discriminações. A revisão bibliográfica embasou-se em problematizar como ocorre a consolidação da ideologia dominante na sociedade e a contribuição da escola para dar sequência a essa padronização, vinculada às relações de poder estabelecidas sobre a cultura. Através de um olhar crítico procurou identificar o conceito de cultura, de multiculturalidade e de diversidade cultural, embasado na perspectiva freireana que procurou explanar as categorias analíticas que fizeram parte da investigação da realidade dos alunos no cotidiano escolar, como opressão e invasão cultural. Utilizou-se de uma abordagem metodológica qualitativa e quantitativa e dos seguintes procedimentos para a coleta de dados: análise documental, entrevistas semi-estruturada com a professora e direção, entrevistas estruturadas com os alunos e num segundo momento uma nova pesquisa com os casos mais representativos que participaram da primeira parte das entrevistas, onde foram aplicadas entrevistas semi-estruturadas e questionário sócio-econômico com os alunos. Ao final são informados os resultados da investigação onde se verificou a dicotomia existente entre a teoria e a prática nas aulas de Geografia, o campo de preconceitos e discriminações que se gerem no ambiente escolar e o total ocultamento à cultura rural na qual os alunos deram fortes indícios de opressão e invasão escolar. Como consequência desse processo foi identificada também evasão escolar dos alunos provenientes da zona rural. Dessa forma, a cultura está dissociada da escola que não utiliza a diversidade existente como objeto para desenvolver uma perspectiva de educação multicultural. / The research proposed to investigate the relations between school and culture in Dom Feliciano. The issue focuses on answering how Dom Feliciano’s public school, with emphasis in Geography, works with the cultural diversity of the students. For this, its investigative context happened in the State Primary and Secondary School Dom Feliciano because it is a space formed by students from every localities of the county. This way it was possible to characterize the cultural diversity of the students, through its representativeness, shown in religion, language, ethnicity and cultural habits, approaching also its origin, in this case rural or urban. The research direction focused on analyzing how the interaction with different cultural habits occurs, verifying if there is prejudice and discrimination. The bibliography review was based upon understanding how the consolidation of the dominant ideology in society occurs and the school contribution to continue this standardization, linked to power relations established over culture. Through a critical view this researched made an attempt to identify the concept of culture, multiculturality and cultural diversity, based on the freireana perspective which tried to explain the analytical categories that was part of the students’ reality in everyday school life, such as oppression and cultural invasion. A qualitative and a quantitative methodological approaches were used and the following procedures to data collection: documentary analysis, semi-structured interview with the teacher and the school management, structured interview with the students and in a second time a new research with the most representative cases that were part of the first interviews, in which semi-structured interview and socio-economic questionnaire were applied with the students. In the end the investigation results are informed in which an alive dichotomy between the theory and the practice was verified in Geography classes, the prejudice and discrimination field created in school environment and the total concealment to rural culture in which the students shown strong evidence of oppression and school invasion. As consequence of this process a school evasion was also identified from students who originate from countryside. This way, the culture is dissociated from school which does not use the existent diversity as an object to develop a perspective of multicultural education.

Applied theatre projects that aim to address social justice issues almost exclusively involve those who are experiencing injustice; while members of the state, who actively maintain the status quo, are frequently overlooked, despite the fact that they are essentially gatekeepers of social justice. In projects that do involve current and/or future members of the state, the root cause of social injustice and the systems, institutions, and ideology which support capitalism are only briefly mentioned, if at all. For this arts-based, anti-oppressive research, I facilitated three applied theatre projects that involved future and/or current gatekeepers. For each project, I considered the conditions that provided participants the opportunity to identify and question dominant ideology through the dramatic process. Having analyzed each case, I found that when applied theatre is structured using a revolutionary approach, it can cultivate felt understanding and deepen critical consciousness. In order to truly address issues of social justice with the goal to ending them, I argue for dedicated spaces where future and current gatekeepers can participate in applied theatre to critically examine the ideas that support capitalism, and the tendency and temptation to draw lines in the sand between “us” and “them”. / Graduate
