Cursinho Popular; Emancipa; Social movement; Ethnography; Politics.
This work is the result of an ethnography in progress at the Cursinho Popular Marielle Franco of Rede Emancipa, in the city of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, with an emphasis on the time frame of the year 2019, in which I worked in the field in person and on a daily basis . The Rede is a social movement for popular education that is organized nationally, mainly through popular preparatory courses for Enem and Vestibular, aimed at the poor population and students from the public school system. The ethnographic research revolves around some conflicting questions in the existence of the cursinho, about how educational practices take place, knowing that its existence is crossed by the conflict between criticizing the exclusive nature of Vestibular and Enem and, at the same time, propose to facilitate the access of the popular strata to Public Universities. And how to deal with this conflict when the students of popular cursinhos are precisely the “surplus of the entrance exam”, that is, students who are usually left out of the places?
