This study is presented as a partial requirement to obtain the degree of master from the Post-graduation program in Education, Culture and Communication in urban peripheries, at the Baixada Fluminense Faculty of Education of the Rio de Janeiro State University. Concentration Area: Education. Research line: Education, Social Movements and Differences. This study deals with a study case of frauds in ethnica-racial identity recognized in college admission processes at federal and state universities which adopted affirmative action politics to black people during the first decades of the XXI century. The references we adopted were Oracy Nogueira (2006) who brought forth the concept of prejudice of mark; Eduardo Oliveira e Oliveira (1974) who problematizes the mixed-race people as an intermediate figure that allowsthe racial passing and “transfuga” through categories, and Alice Walker(1982) who states the term colorism, defined as a prejudicial or preferential treatment of same-race people based uniquely on their skin color. We adopted a study cases methodology, in which were selected exemplary cases of frauds published on online journals. We concluded that the multiple system of classification based on color/race produces intermediate figures as the “pardo”, “mertiço” and “moreno”, contributing to the mobility through the categories of color/races and disturbing the construction of a black ethnical-racial identity. Taking as references the articles from Oliveira Oliveira and Walker, which discuss two different models of racial classification, we observed that these categories of race/color either in dual systems as well as in multiple systems produce scaping mechanisms for the individuals of less social prestige due to the negative stigma associated to them. The affirmative action politics, which introduce the black people as the new beneficiary of these politics, allow “transfuga” or passing, creates mechanisms of control in admission programs of institutions of higher education and open space to solutions from the civil society.
