Resumo: | This paper discuss he relationship between identity, hybridization and racism in Brazilian soap operas. Thus, we use the identity concepts according to Bauman, Hall and Canclini. Highlighting, the last author also the hybridization conception. According to these authors, the identity is not something pure and immutable; it is a discarded point of view, constituting a mere fiction. There are just identity processes, and these are in a dynamic construction and reconstruction process. In addition, the hybridization idea is directly related to the same issue because the identities are not pure, but they are the result of hybridizations of different cultures and customs. Thus, Brazilian soap operas seem to reinforce a kind of purity of national identity by showing only the white phenotype. In this manner, for those who watch the soap operas (both domestic as foreign viewers) can have a false idea that there is a white majority in Brazil and that we live in a racial democracy. We chose, as methodology to discuss these issues, the Joel Zito Araújo's concepts, which deals specifically with the racism problem, especially in audiovisual products. Based on the mentioned authors, we are going to make an analysis of the hybridization process that is present in the identities construction and reverberates in soap operas in a racist and exclusionary way. |

O presente artigo tem foco discutir a questão da relação entre identidade, hibridação e o racismo nas telenovelas. Assim, procuramos apresentar as concepções de identidade segundo Bauman, Hall e Canclini. Destacando, deste último, também a noção de hibridação. Pois, de acordo com estes autores, a identidade, como algo puro e imutável é descartada, constituindo uma mera ficção. O que existem são processos identitários, e estes estão em uma dinâmica de construção e reconstrução. E a ideia de hibridação está relacionada diretamente com a mesma questão, pois, as identidades, por não serem puras, são os resultados das hibridações de diversas culturas e costumes. Sendo assim, as telenovelas brasileiras parecem reforçar uma espécie de pureza da identidade nacional ao evidenciar apenas o fenótipo branco. Desse modo, para quem assiste às novelas brasileiras (tanto os telespectadores nacionais quanto os estrangeiros), podem ter uma falsa impressão de que no Brasil há uma maioria branca e, que se vive em uma democracia racial. Optamos como metodologia, para discutir essas questões, a utilização das concepções de Joel Zito Araújo, que trata especificamente do problema do racismo, sobretudo nos produtos audiovisuais. Com base nos autores mencionados, faremos uma análise sobre o processo de hibridização que está presente na construção das identidades que repercuti nas telenovelas de modo racista e excludente.
