Racial Culture

Using the autoethnographic case study method, this article examines how my positionality as a foreign-born faculty member intersects with the institutional rhetoric of diversity and inclusion present in many predominantly White institutions. My vignettes show that foreign-born faculty, although contributing to the representation of diversity numbers, are positioned as knowledge providers in the discussions about the ‘global’, the ‘cultural’ and sometimes the ‘racial’, thus, ironically reinforce the embedded White institutional culture. This article argues that foreign-born faculty members could make use of their cultural positions to unpack the classed and racial culture on campus and to cultivate students’ anthropological sensibility. In other words, foreign-born faculty are in a unique position of recognising the limitations of the current diversity and inclusion rhetoric in predominantly White institutions (PWI), but also, they have the potential of decentring the White, middle-class cultural norms. This article concludes with some pedagogical implications.

Studies on knowledge concerning capoeira were distributed for analysis by Silva (2017) in three categories: knowledge related to the production of shows, the production of events and training courses. Based on the analysis of the archives of the Capoeira Água de Beber Cultural Center, between the years 2002 and 2006, we attempted to register the existing relationships between capoeira and the university, that is, how formal and informal knowledge are articulated within the scope of actions undertaken to set up training courses in the group. As a methodological resource, a case study was used, and it can be noticed that the promotion of dialogue between capoeira masters, researchers from different scientific areas and university professors is inserted both in the formation of the capoeira practitioner who intends to act as capoeira teacher or not and in the formation of an audience interested in the study of Brazilian ethnic and racial culture and relations, specifically from Ceará.
