Abstract

MARTINS, Hildeberto Vieira. Other characters entered on the scene: the black movement and the emergence of a "racialized politics". Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.spe, pp. 1393-1414. ISSN 1808-4281.

The present article to discuss the importance of the black movement from the 1930s on account of its political role on the national scene when denouncing the existence of racial prejudice in Brazil and the unequal relationship between whites and blacks. We defined as reference points of this movement the creation of both the Frente Negra Brasileira (FNB) in 1931 and the Teatro Experimental do Negro (TEN) in 1944. The two organizations in their analysis of the situation of the Negro often presented this question in terms marked by a psychological content whose attempt was to explain or solve their condition of exclusion. What we want to discuss is the role of this movement in the diffusion of a discussion about the black self-image and its social role from the political racialization of the place of this historical subject in Brazil.

Keywords : racial issue; racism; black movement; racial identity; history of psychology.
