This study aims to understand how History Teaching can contribute to the debate on black identities with students in Elementary School – Final Years, based on the historical trajectory of black women. To this end, the study is theoretically based on reflections on black feminism, decoloniality, and Education for Ethnic-Racial Relations. The research was developed based on the methodological procedures of action research and carried out in a private school, located in the city of Ananindeua, with students in the eighth and ninth grades of Elementary School, during the school practice of History Teaching. The sources used for the research were the institution's teaching materials, the History contents of Elementary School – Final Years ac-cording to the BNCC, as well as the images and representations contained in the textbooks. As a result, it was found that there are few analyses in relation to the racial debate and the promo-tion of positive black identities, mainly in relation to the historical protagonism of black women. To reverse this problem, we proposed, as an educational product, didactic sequences in History Teaching for Elementary School students – Final Years, who led the debate on race, gender and class based on the historical trajectory of black women. The objective of the educational product is to contribute to the debates on positive black identities and thus enable black students to (re)cognize their historical, racial, social and cultural belonging, and for non-black students, to adopt a critical stance towards racist practices and to promote anti-racist actions.
