SUMMARY:

This research approaches the presence of black grandmothers and granddaughters characters in contemporary children's literature, from the perspective and discussion of the legitimation of erased, unheard or forgotten voices. It is considered that the representativeness of the body of the grandmother is part of a coping strategy around the structural racism practiced and rooted in Brazilian society. The research highlights the connectivity between the characters of the old black women and the black girls, which enables the encounter between different times and spaces and the appearance of narratives and discourses of ancestry and enchantment, breaking with hegemonic modes of representation. The importance of the grandmother leads us to suggest her presence as a fundamental and complex element to define Afro-Brazilian literature, expanding the proposition of Duarte (2014). The thesis highlights the need to know and discuss works by female authorship of contemporary Brazilian literature, defending anti-racist literacy practices to reconsider the school space as the place of practices of the “aquilombar”, through the rescue of collective memories, characterized in the ancestral discourses.
