📅 17 June 2004 📍 Brazil

The National Education Council’s Resolution 1/2004 established guidelines for education in ethnic-racial relations and for teaching Afro-Brazilian and African history and culture. It extended the curriculum reform begun by Law 10,639/2003 into institutional guidance for schools and teacher preparation. The measure challenged accounts that treated Black people as marginal to Brazil’s national history, though implementation varied widely.
