In her book “Teaching Community” (2003), bell hooks claims that educators must work “so that the classroom is not a site where domination (on the basis of race, class, gender, nationality, sexual preference, religion) is perpetuated” and that it should be “a place that is life-sustaining and mind-expanding, a place of liberating mutuality where teacher and students together work in partnership”. This is in agreement with the Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (PCN) because it promotes the classroom as:

(a)

a place that is completely isolated from the community and therefore should not allow for social life issues to be discussed in class.

(b)

a site where teachers and students create community and discuss social life issues, except for issues of race, class, gender, nationality, sexual preference and/ or religion.

(c)

a place where the majority should authoritatively rule over the minority because dialogue should not be used as a way of mediating conflicts and taking collective decisions.

(d)

a site that promotes attitudes of solidarity, cooperation and aversion to injustice, including in regard to issues of race, class, gender, nationality, sexual preference and/ or religion.

(e)

a site of hope because teachers and students may learn from each other by eliminating any possibility of having students position themselves critically, responsibly and/ or constructively.
