Orientador: Bernadete Aparecida Caprioglio de Castro / Resumo: Essa tese discorre sobre os saraus contemporâneos em São Paulo, compreendidos aqui enquanto manifestações originariamente periféricas resultantes da consolidação de uma cultura fortemente vinculada à literatura marginal/periférica e ao movimento hip-hop. Os saraus se apresentam enquanto espaços democráticos de expressão dos sujeitos periféricos, numa dinâmica que os coloca enquanto protagonistas de uma cena que se apoia sobre a voz e seu grito geográfico no território que ecoa para além da periferia. Nesse sentido, essa tese se propõe a mapear os saraus da cidade e do estado de São Paulo, promovendo uma cartografia da ação que faz do mapa um espaço de representação dessa manifestação de resistência diante do circuito cultural tradicional, apresentando o modo como essa cultura vai se consolidando e ocupando o espaço da cidade. Por fim, também apresenta a experiência da Parada Poética, um sarau realizado na antiga estação ferroviária de Nova Odessa/SP, afim de estabelecer um recorte mais aproximado dessa manifestação, de um ponto de vista interno e sob o viés da Ecologia de saberes, que mostra os detalhes e as singularidades que estão envolvidos na produção desse sarau e o modo como ele ressignifica o espaço que ocupa e transforma a cultura local. / Abstract: This thesis deals with the saraos in São Paulo, understood here as originally peripheral manifestations resulting from the consolidation of a culture strongly linked to marginal / peripheral literature and the hip-hop movement. The saraos present themselves as democratic spaces of expression of the peripheral subjects, in a dynamic that places them as protagonists of a scene that relies on the voice and its geographic cry in the territory that echoes beyond the periphery. In this sense, this thesis proposes to map the saraos of the city and the state of São Paulo, promoting a cartography of the action that makes of the map a space of representation of this manifestation of resistance before the traditional cultural circuit, presenting the way this culture goes consolidating and occupying the space of the city. Finally, he also presents the experience of the Poetic Parade, a sarau performed at Nova Odessa / SP train station, in order to establish a closer approximation of this manifestation, from an internal point of view and under the bias of the Ecology of Knowledge, which shows the details and the singularities that are involved in the production of this sarau and the way in which it reaffirms the space it occupies and transforms the local culture. / Doutor

Abstract This thesis acknowledges the social and cultural importance of education and the role the institution plays in the construction of knowledge – in this case of young Nunga males. It also recognizes that education is a contested field. I have disrupted constructions of knowledge about young Nunga males in mainstream education by mapping and rapping - or mappin and rappin Aboriginal English - the theories of race, masculinity, performance, cultural capital, body and desire and space and place through the use of Nunga time-space pathways. Through disruption I have shown how the theories of race and masculinity underpin ways in which Blackness and Indignity are played out within the racialisation of education and how the process of racialisation informs young Nunga males’ experiences of schooling. The cultural capital that young Nunga males bring to the classroom and schooling environment must be acknowledged to enable performance of agency in contested time, space and knowledge paradigms. Agency privileges their understanding and desire for change and encourages them to apply strategies that contribute to their own journeys home through time-space pathways that are (at least in part) of their own choosing.
