Trajetórias mais pretes que nunca: caminhos de de(s)colonização da formação em psicologia.
The research aims to discuss the academic trajectories of black students in a Psychology course at a federal university in the northeast region of Brazil, focusing on the decolonization of training. As specific objectives, we have: 1) Discuss the challenges related to anti-racist and de(s)colonial training in Psychology identified by black/black students based on their undergraduate experiences; and 2) Identify strategies present in the training itineraries of undergraduate students to recognize and create counter colonial shifts in Psychology training based on African and Afro-diasporic epistemologies. The methodological proposal had a qualitative character and was outlined by the development of discussion workshops and artistic experimentation with the participants. Results highlight the white and Eurocentric structure of the university, subjective effects such as the inferiorization and objectification of black subjectivities, and strategies such as aquilombamento and the production of new theoretical references as lines of escape and confrontation with academic racism. The research contributes to visualizing the trajectories of black students and questioning coloniality in Psychology training.
