The present work aims to address the educational trajectory of the Black population from the perspective that in Brazil, the process of abolition remains inconclusive, as it has been unable to ensure full rights to this segment of the population. They have been hindered in accessing education, especially at the higher education level, which is one of its main characteristics. This hindrance continues to repeat and persist to this day in various aspects of life in Brazilian society, which records some of the highest levels of social asymmetry— largely racialized—largely justified by the forced and unequal integration of the Black population, a foundational element of our society. We seek to present some of the contradictions surrounding this theme, the role of social participation and mobilization in defense of this affirmative action approach, as well as to present the evolution of the legal framework regarding racial quotas. In this work, we will address the impact of adopting affirmative measures with a racial focus, related to access to higher education, on the living conditions of this portion of the Brazilian population.
