Abstract Utilizing the concepts of ethos and self-image, as they are understood in Studies of Language field, and the concepts of otherness and identity, as they are discussed under the Cultural Studies perspective, this text aims at being a contribution to the reflection and understanding of some social threads to which we have been subjected. Specifically speaking, in this case, having as a starting point the analysis of the documentary feature Cinderelas, Wolves and a Prince Charming, by filmmaker Joel Zito, it is our intention to problematize the images that the common sense builds on black women. Two black women’s speeches, who work as prostitutes in Pelourinho (Salvador -Bahia), form the corpus of our analysis.
