Abstract

It's known that the Southern Brazilian region enhances the presence of white Europeans immigrants during the building of it's population. But, the presence of 36 quilombola communities certified on Paraná, still are ignored and non-saw. This article has results about the primary documents of Paraná’s Public Archive, as classification lists of slaves to emancipate (1873-1886) on Paraná’s Province, observed by the cultural studies perspective. On that age, Free Womb Law cannot guarantee the black children’s freedom, because they were guarded by the tutelage of theirs owners till they complete 21. According to it, they needed to pay for the tutelage with compulsory work as farmers, campers, domestic servants, pagers, cookers, sewers, or they were sent to State's protection. It concluded that the invisibility of black child has links with a kind of ideology that sustains the white superiority and the black inferiority, contributing with a white Parana's portrait, and perpetuing discrimination marks and racial prejudice that affects black children in contemporary scholarship space.
