Teaching and Learning Paulo Freire: South Africa’s Communities of Struggle

Abstract: This article highlights both the internal educative practices of social movements and how these practices can effectively link to building Freirean pedagogies within higher education institutions. At the heart of this possibility lies the democratic transformation of relations between students and teachers on the one hand and researchers and activists on the other. I draw from two case studies of my own research on community-based organisations and workers’ movements in post-apartheid South Africa, which point… Show more

“…O segundo artigo, de 1974, é de autoria de Dennis Gleeson, afiliado à Universidade de Keele, Reino Unido, que, a partir da análise da obra Pedagogia do oprimido, destacou a importância do trabalho emergente de Paulo Freire para docentes e discentes refletirem criticamente sobre os problemas sociais, em especial aqueles que afetavam o Terceiro Mundo, porque os capacitavam a recusar a subserviência aos dogmas e aos mitos naturalizados (GLEESON, 1974). Dentre as produções mais recentes, consta o artigo de Luke Sinwell, pesquisador da Universidade de Joanesburgo, África do Sul, que, no intuito de desafiar os sistemas de opressão, destaca as conexões da educação libertadora com justiça social e movimentos sociais (SINWELL, 2022).…”

“…The latter is not justice. Justice is not equal treatment per se, because that does not work to address and deal with inequalities, but rather missional-political justice within the ecclesiological realm, as well as within society, is to bring all to equality by meeting the needs of individuals in a particular context and working to bring them to the same 'standard' as others (Sinwell, 2022). Therefore, this challenges the conventional understanding of what fairness is.…”

“…The emancipatory ideals of critical pedagogy are spectres of the Frankfurt school of critical theory based on Enlightenment ideals also evident in Paulo Freire's (1972) notion of "conscientisation" and decolonial scholar wa' Thiong'o's (1981) "Decolonising of the mind". Paulo Freire's ghost lingers on in the field of curriculum studies internationally and in relation to South African higher education in several works including, Le Grange (2011a), Rule (2011), Roux andBecker (2016), andSinwell (2022). Despite its radical nature to transform minds and society, critical pedagogy has received criticisms over the years: Deever (1996) argued that it has failed to transform education because of its refusal to engage in the politics of negotiation and translation and therefore remained ensconced in the academe.…”
