O negro na dramaturgia, um caso exemplar da decadência do mito da democracia racial brasileira

Abstract

The myth of the Brazilian racial democracy still remains among the cinema and soap opera industry, even though it is greatly criticized by several sectors of the black population. The myth is characterized as a powerful curtain that enables the perception of negative stereotypes about African-Brazilians and provokes the lack of recognition of black actors and actresses throughout the country's history of cinema and television. © 2008 by Revista Estudos Feministas.
