Descripción:This paper discusses the way ethnic-racial relationships are built in Brazilian education, that is, new knowledge cannot be constructed if an engagement posture and activist attitude is created. This posture is not new in education and social sciences. A literature review points out that, researchers and thinkers demonstrate that knowledge is produced by activism and engagement. It challenges a hegemonic idea of knowledge production. Therefore, to be considered a scientist, it has to be in an elevated epistemic subject, a messenger of a particular way of investigation with specific concepts that direct an empirical action. Acting as guarantor for objectivity of the produced knowledge, as the one who produces truths and meaning for society epistemically. The knowledge of producing subjects is moved by intellectual anxiety based on a concrete reality in which it is embedded. This term can be analogously situated in what Freire (1987) points out that culture cannot be unlinked from the subject, as it is the culture that constitutes the subject. This cultural subject is an own producer, implied in a reality; this subject cannot be objectivized outward itself.
