Abstract: In this study we analyzed the implementation of Act 10.639/2003 in a municipal school in Jequié/Bahia, giving special attention to the main challenges faced by educators in carrying out this task. Qualitative methodology was used to collect data, using the semi-structured interview technique and the reading of the School’s Political Pedagogical Project, thus allowing us a critical and reflective look at the links that involve the discussion and the implementation of said subject matter in this space. It was noted that the lack of pedagogical materials for the development of the discussions on the teaching of African and Afro-Brazilian history and culture is still a problem that the institution faces. In this sense, it was emphasized that the continuing education of educators is crucial for the teaching of this theme to be more forceful in the school environment, especially in the production of didactic materials to be worked on in the daily classroom. It is understood that well-trained professionals, also in the theme of ethnic-racial relations ship, could be cooperate in the recognition, valorization and strengthening of the contributions of the African matrix in the formation of the Brazilian nation, thus overcoming prejudice and racism that are still impregnated in our society.
