O protagonista negro em narrativas ficcionais baseadas na historiografia: desafios estético-políticos para as produções audiovisuais brasileiras by Maria Aparecida  Silva  Ribeiro

“…As a result, the narrativization of a historical past crossed by sociopolitical demands of the present is evident, which in the case of the anti-racist agenda, gives rise to semantic contradictions or the reiteration of stereotypes. Finally, elements of film analysis that are potentially applicable to similar productions, in their structures and intentions, are highlighted in the works.…”
