This dissertation addresses and deepens the uses of psychoactive substances (SPA) and the transformation of SPA into merchandise. It points to the genesis of prohibitionism, indicating facts and speeches that instituted drug prohibition in Brazil, forging a war on drugs. In doing so, he investigates the history of slavery and the myth of racial equality and its determinations for racial hierarchy. It is anchored in the perspective that in order to understand the racial question in Brazil a critical reading is necessary that considers the constitution of the economic, social, cultural and political relations, as well as the representations of slavery and the unfinished abolition in its daily reediciones, mainly in the lethality and incarceration produced by the prohibitionist drug policy. The final reflections, results of an extensive bibliographical and documentary research, bet on a synergy between race and class in the production of the drug war.
