SUMMARY:

The purpose of this thesis to investigate the book um corpo negro (2019) by
Lubi Prates (1986), which brings racism in everyday life, the one that transits
between ancestry and the silencing of the Black voice. The Prates’ veses
embody individual and collective memories in a space of self-representation.
Verses inscribed in ways of saying about the black female body which is
subjugated to stereotyped and ethnocentric representations, historically
constructed by the Brazilian cultural tradition. For this work, the concept of
diaspora was used to explain the process of construction of the black body in
Brazilian society, the intersectionality concept to assist in the discussion of the
body through gender, race and class and the decoloniality concept to engender
in writing a possibility of denunciation and resistance. To do so, it was
necessary too delve into the historical processes and analyze the historiography
of the black body, showing the tactics created with the intention of camouflaging
African history and its diaspora.
