This paper begins with the study of the trajectory of Black identity construction in Brazil from the controversial Abolition of Slavery and the precarious integration of Black people in class society, based mainly on the studies of Florestan Fernandes. Building on the analysis of that historical event, it is argued in favor its social impact on Black people s lifes has had far-reaching effects on shaping Black identity and has finally required Black Movement`s action meant to move political and social structures based on deep-rooted discriminating and stigmatising standards. Reversal of theses ideologically based standards is argued to be possible through education, chiefly intercultural, with anti-racist bias. It examines the effectiveness of Brazilian Federal Law n. 10.639/03, which made mandatory the inclusion of Afro-Brazilian and African Culture and History in primary education school curriculum, as a means for promoting racial equality through the inquiry of its application at municipal schools in the city of João Pessoa. The paper is methodologically structured on the concepts of ideology, identity, multiculturalism and interculturality, with this last one as the main proposed conclusion reached by its author. It is built on the work of the following theoreticians: Charles Taylor and Stuart Hall.
