Prior to the 1920s, the state of California authorized local school districts to educate Native American children in ““separate but equal”” facilities where there was no federal Indian school in the vicinity. In 1923 seven Indian children in Inyo County attempted to enroll in a public school instead of attending the poorer quality local Indian day school. The state Supreme Court, in Piper v. Big Pine School District (1924), ruled in their favor. The case was central to ending segregation in California’’s public schools.

Resumo: O movimento institucional indígena tem ganhado variadas expressões desde sua criação nos anos 1980, período de abertura política no Brasil. Este artigo analisa uma dessas expressões. Analisa-se a busca da escolarização indígena pelo movimento social Guarani, criado por dois irmãos na década de 1990, no estado do Rio de Janeiro. Grande parte das sociedades Guarani são oriundas do Paraguai, Bolívia, Uruguai e Argentina, cujas famílias mantêm uma circulação não fixa por todos esses territórios. A noção de escolarização é atravessada por ritos, seres cósmicos e lógicas sensíveis que desconstroem os sentidos puramente racionais dos modelos de educação indígena que têm povoado a América Latina. Conclui-se que há um mundo invisível e cosmológico que subsume os processos de escolarização e o movimento popular indígena. Os mundos invisíveis são, portanto, condições essenciais e indivisíveis ao entendimento de política, organização e humanidade Guarani.Palavras-Chave: Educação Indígena. Movimento Social Guarani. Cosmologia. THE REVOLUTION OF SENSES AND THINGS: A GUARANI - MBYÁ MOVEMENT IN SEARCH OF INDIGENOUS SCHOOLING Abstract: The indigenous institutional movement has gained varied expressions since its creation in the 1980s, a period of political beginning in Brazil. This paper studies one of these expressions. This study analyzes the search for indigenous schooling based on the popular Guarani movement, created by two brothers in the 1990s in the state of Rio de Janeiro / Brazil. The most Guarani societies came from Paraguay, Bolivia, Uruguay and Argentina, where families maintained a non-fixed circulation for all these territories. The notion of schooling is crossed by rites, cosmic beings and sensible logics that deconstruct the purely rational meanings of the models of intercultural education that have populated Latin America. It’s possible to conclude that there is an entire invisible and cosmological world, which subsumes the processes of schooling and the indigenous movements. The invisible worlds are, therefore, essential and its indivisible conditions are mandatory to the understanding of Guarani politics, organization and humanity.Keywords: Indigenous Education.

This paper is the result of anthropological research conducted among the Mbyá - Guarani, from the Southeast of Brazil and Northern Argentina. Based on the ethnographic method, the paper analyzes indigenous schooling through the shamanism plan and the different conceptions of body, knowledge, and notions of indigenous persons. This study discusses the conflicts between school and alterities, human and nonhuman, understanding that the notion of schooling crossed by cosmic entity and sensible logic deconstructs the normative and rational models of indigenous education that has populated America Latin America and Caribbean. This study finds that there is an invisible and cosmological world that subsumes the schooling processes. Invisible worlds are understood, in this context, as essential and indivisible conditions for the understanding of Guarani curriculum, organization, and alterity.

It is with pleasure we present this Special Issue of The Australian Journal of Indigenous Education, which is devoted to the research being conducted by the Remote Education Systems (RES) project in a range of sites in Western Australia, the Northern Territory and South Australia. The RES project is a 5-year project and represents one theme within the larger research program of the Cooperative Research Centre for Remote Economic Participation (CRC-REP). The AJIE welcomes the chance to circulate the progress of this important work to our readership, many of whom are committed to improving Indigenous schooling. We particularly welcome the chance to devote an entire edition to remote Indigenous education, for the challenges in this context are not well understood, but are often the subject of public comment and opinion from all quarters. The RES project is investigating and challenging the assumptions that underpin the current rationales of Indigenous remote education systems. The AJIE is also pleased to welcome John Guenther and Melodie Bat as our Guest Editors for this volume. We also thank Professor Jeannie Herbert, Foundation Chair of Indigenous Studies at Charles Sturt University, for her Introduction to the journal articles. Born in the remote Kimberley, Jeannie has been a classroom teacher and educational administrator. She is best known as an Indigenous academic who has been an active Indigenous education advocate, researcher, author and speaker for many years. We look forward to your engagement with the themes and issues contained in this special edition and in future editions of AJIE.

A temática tratada neste artigo se refere a uma breve historiografia sobre as políticas públicas educacionais e o processo de escolarização dos povos indígenas. Faz parte do construto bibliográfico relacionado à pesquisa de mestrado, ainda em andamento, desenvolvida no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (PPGE/Ufopa), com o tema “Educação Superior Indígena na Amazônia”. O objetivo principal deste estudo é verificar o arcabouço teórico existente a respeito das políticas públicas educacionais, compreender o processo de escolarização dos indígenas e verificar a inserção e a participação dessas populações nessas políticas, inclusive no ensino superior com base na experiência vivenciada pela Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (Ufopa). Para sua realização, adotou-se, no primeiro momento, um estudo historiográfico das políticas públicas educacionais, considerando as concepções de Paulilo (2010). Em seguida, verificou-se o processo de escolarização dos indígenas, utilizando como enfoque teórico as concepções de Santos (2011) e Secchi (2007). Por fim, para tratar da presença indígena no ensino superior, referenciou-se nos estudos do Grupo de Estudos Multidisciplinares de Ação Afirmativa (2013) e nos documentos institucionais da Ufopa para ilustrar o cesso e a estatística do quantitativo de estudantes indígenas ingressantes nessa instituição. Os resultados obtidos por meio deste estudo oportunizaram conhecer o percurso histórico das políticas públicas em educação, as interferências sociais, econômicas e políticas por elas sofridas. No que se refere ao acesso dos indígenas ao ensino superior, o estudo revelou os desafios desses povos para ter acesso a esse nível de ensino. No caso específico citado da Ufopa, esse desafio é muito maior em função da expressiva diversidade étnico, cultural e racial existente nessa universidade.Palavras-chave: Educação. Políticas públicas.
