This article presents and discusses preliminary findings from a historical-longitudinal study investigating the meanings and challenges of anti-racist advertising in Brazil, examining the representation of Black individuals in television commercials aired between 2000 and 2024, before and after the enactment of the Racial Equality Statute. Quantitative content analysis indicates that the law’s promulgation did not lead to a consistent increase in such representation. The observed advances were sporadic and driven by specific historical and social pressures. Even in years of greater Black visibility, representation occurred predominantly alongside white individuals, revealing structural constraints in dismantling the symbolic hegemony of whiteness.
