EUGENIO, Benedito Gonçalves and ALGARRA, Julia. BLACK STUDENTS, RACISM AND AFFIRMATIVE ACTIONS IN HIGHER EDUCATION. Rev. Exitus [online]. 2018, vol.8, n.2, pp.59-84. Epub May 28, 2019. ISSN 2237-9460. https://doi.org/10.24065/2237-9460.2018v8n2id529.
In this work, we analyze the schooling pathway of black students who entered higher education by means of affirmative action policy. Four black students from the law undergraduate course of the State University of Southwestern Bahia - UESB were interviewed. The research design is exploratory and qualitative. The study allows us to understand the process of education of black students until they enter Higher Education, as well as their perception about schooling and their experience with racism.
