Abstract

This article examines Brazilian racism through the idea of negation. The psychoanalytical concept of denial is present and recognised in current Brazilian racist statements. It is analysed in examples which occur in Brazilian speech in everyday life and allow racist thoughts and words to remain in Brazilian minds and actions.
