| Sumario: | In this article we will try to analyze racism in Argentina. Built on the myth that Argentines descend from ships, racism has gone unnoticed as a phenomenon. However, we maintain that it is present in everyday exchanges and state practices. What are the characteristics of racism on our margins? What universe of meanings does the "black" stigma represent in Argentina? Who are the "blacks" turned into police labor? Finally, we will take Human Rights as a toolbox that can allow emancipation and the fight against the hegemonic construction that underestimates and stratifies other humans. Rights are not granted but conquered in social struggles. Only with an understanding of complex social phenomena can we confront those who, under the cover of security, only want our freedom. |
