This article aims to analyze the trajectory of Abdias Nascimento between the 1920s and 1940s, in order to understand his formation process as an intellectual engaged in the causes of Black populations. We consider in this analysis the formative projects organized by him aiming at the dissemination of emancipatory knowledge, with emphasis on the experience of the Teatro Experimental do Negro. Nascimento is interpreted as a Black intellectual who represented part of the history of Black people in the fight against racial discrimination in Brazil. In theoretical terms, we will operate with the concepts of experience space and expectations horizons of Koselleck (2006), as well as with the concept of intellectual, proposed by Vieira (2011). The sources of this research were books, articles and photographs published in the press.

Keywords : Abdias Nascimento; intellectuals; Black movement; Experimental Theatre of Black People.
