This article discusses the importance of schools in resisting hate speech. To this end, it presents the experience of the Human Rights Observatory in Schools Project (PODHE), which has been running since 2017 in public schools in São Paulo. Specifically, it highlights its concept of experiencing rights, in which relationships, emotions, and art education take center stage. As will be indicated, the culture of hate has exerted a growing influence on the formation of the subjectivities of adolescents and young people, producing tensions, hostilities, and the reproduction of violence. Schools are not immune to this process and, due to their central role in the socialization of new generations, occupy a fundamental position in its deconstruction - provided they adopt an education based on and for democracy, committed to human rights, and capable of strengthening the cultivation of other affections, subjectivities, values, and ways of relating.
