Establishing dialogues between texts on media and racism. We chose to bring readings that problematize the media construction of Black people in contexts of racism and/or anti-racist struggle, for example, Black protagonism in invisible spaces.
With this we intend not only to problematize racism in/from the media, but also to reflect on paths towards an anti-racist media that celebrates diversity, in contrast to the monologic and homogenizing narrative, whose standard is mostly referred to by white bodies.
