PHILOSOPHY IN HIGH SCHOOL:

THINKING ABOUT GENDER IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACE

Abstract

This article aims to present new proposals to reflect the gender theme from the teaching of philosophy to high school. Philosophy teaching is not just a curricular necessity, but a great ally for the development of knowledge through the autonomy of thinking, mainly rethinking the new demands that are present and current in Brazilian society, as is the case of philosophy teaching and its gender cut. With this, the school is the public space projected through the logic of differences, enabling the deepening of knowledge through diversity, being the study of gender philosophy, a tool of great prominence, among which we chose some sections to be worked in the classroom with the works of the authors: Sojourner Truth, Silvia Federici, Judith Butler and Djamila Ribeiro, which contribute to understanding issues related to how to think, why to think about gender relations, emphasizing the importance of this philosophical approach for the construction of an inclusive space and participatory in the public space and so that it is possible to take this construction of thinking beyond the school, forming part of the private space of students, family and community in which they live.
