"Racial Relations in Early Childhood Education" is a scholarly book that addresses the challenges and practices of racial discrimination within the context of early childhood education. It highlights the latent forms of discrimination that occur in children's daily school life and calls for a critical reflection on existing racist structures. The book argues for the necessity of rethinking early childhood education in Brazil, particularly concerning the rights and needs of marginalized groups that gained more recognition through the 1988 Constitution. It emphasizes that education plays a key role in combating social inequalities, but it is not the only solution. To effect real change, comprehensive political and social reform is required. The work offers valuable insights for educators, researchers, and anyone engaged with the issues of racism and education.
