CAMPOS, Leonardo Lacerda  e  TEBET, Gabriela. FROM REDEMPTION TO REPARATION: THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE RACIAL QUESTION IN BRAZIL. Revista Teias [online]. 2024, vol.25, n.76, pp.3-15.  Epub 07-Mar-2024. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2024.72066.

This article aims to analyze the trajectory of studies on black people, through a historical analysis of the colonization process, especially in the elaboration of stereotypes that were used to justify the dehumanizing process of enslavement anchored in Racial Theories and scientific racism. We also seek to understand the way in which some Enlightenment artists contributed to solidify the process of invisibility of the African continent and the African peoples. We discuss the ideology of Brazilian racial democracy and the way in which this narrative legitimized the marginalization of Afro-Brazilians. To support this study, we conducted a bibliographic research, activating thinkers who deal with the theme, namely: Munanga (2000; 2008), Silva (2007), Hernandes (2008), Hall (2006), Guimarães (2001; 2004), Azevedo (1996), Freyre (2005), Fernandes (2008), Ki-Zerbo (2010), among others. The results point to the way in which racism was used as an ideological basis of domination, both in colonialism and neocolonialism. In Brazil, this narrative, built on the marginalization of Afro-Brazilians, legitimized and made unfeasible the insertion of blacks in Brazilian society, especially after abolition, which we consider unsuccessful. In this sense, the racism operationalized in Brazil, in a concealed way, established a set of strategies that were able to promote an inversion with regard to the promotion of the country's image as a racial democracy.

Palavras-chave : unsuccessful abolition; slavery; stereotypes; marginalization; resistance.
