LA EDUCACIÓN POPULAR EN LOS ESTADOS UNIDOS :LAS HUELLAS DE PAULO FREIRE Y MYLES HORTON
Journal Title: Ideação - Year 2020, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
This work is located in the field of history and education. It seeks to reconstruct one of the processes least traveled by the tradition of Latin American and North American popular education. In this case, to rescue links, similarities, encounters and differences of two conceptions and referents of popular education: Paulo Freire and Myles Horton. Freire, during his long exile in the 1960s and 1970s, was repeatedly invited to the United States. There I carried out exchanges in which he presented and debated with North American peers about the possibilities of interpreting and "applying" the ideas of "Pedagogy of the oppressed" in first world territories ". Harvard, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Los Angeles were Freire's main stays. In some cases with short tours and in others, with the goal of returning to complete common work. This was the case with the historic American popular educator Myles Horton, creator of one of the most relevant movements in the history of American popular education, the Teennesse Highlander Center. It was common for both Horton and Freire in their presentations to be asked indiscriminately, "Is it possible to think popular education in the United States?" Can First World countries implement “popular tradition” strategies in their organizations and in their classrooms? Precisely these concerns, and above all, the historical reconstruction of these meetings will be the central axis of this work.
