The purpose of this text is to reflect on the construction of the brazilian national identity as a racist and genocidal project that, therefore, needs to be relaxed in order to be overcome. For the presentation that follows, there is an urgent need to understand the need for the decolonization of life and the denaturalization of the social relations that comprise it. Among other things, decolonizing life means denaturalizing historical elements and phenomena considered socially natural. Racism and national identity are examples of products of culture that, in Brazil, have reached a level of sacralization that makes most brazilians believe that they are innate in society and essences of “brazilianness”. To decolonize life, radical pedagogical, that is, decolonial, action is urgent, which can contribute to an understanding of the world beyond the hegemonic vision, beyond the naturalization of social relations.
