SUMMARY:

The book A Color Defect by Ana Maria Gonçalves, published in 2006, brings the nineteenth century slave ensemble. In the eyes of the narrator-protagonist, Kehinde, she recounts her life trajectory since she was eight years old, when she lived in Africa, where she was captured, crossing the Atlantic Ocean, her coexistence in Brazil, the arrival of her children, as well as, the losses until his reconstruction of life through his return to Africa. The racial hierarchy is observed throughout the narrative, involving white, mulatto, black and black characters. Following this perspective, I intend to address the assumptions built by whiteness in the colonial period that resulted in a racially hierarchical society. In view of the fact that, in the context of the 19th century, the positioning of the church, the sciences and universal philosophical currents contributed to the implantation of a racist system in Brazil. As well as patriarchal and nationalist speeches. In this way, black people's religions, their dances, their ways of resistance became motives for persecution and black bodies, in addition to being exploited, underwent constant surveillance and judgment.
