Abstract
The book “Interracial families: tensions between color and love”by Lia Vainer Schucman, 2018, analyzes through interviews, five interracial families, seeking to understand how the issues of color, race and racism are lived and meant by different family members and transmitted between generations. It also deals with the intrapsychic and interpsychic dimensions of the experiences, to demonstrate that within these families it is possible to build strategies to face racism, and the embrace and elaboration of violence, but this is also the locus of legitimation and racist experience. At the end, he points out: i) the need to recognize the damages that cause inequality in the social experience of race and racialization of subjects; ii) racial literacy as the appropriation of a new way of being, acting and thinking to overcome whiteness.

Señala: i) la necesidad de reconocer los daños que causan la desigualdad en la experiencia social de la raza y la racialización de los sujetos; ii) la alfabetización racial como la apropiación de una nueva forma de ser, actuar y pensar para superar la blancura.
O momento histórico que vivemos tem sido marcado por cotidianas demonstrações de racismos, tanto na sociedade brasileira como na sociedade estadunidense, assim como em muitos outros lugares, especialmente naqueles marcados pela experiência da colonização e escravização – territórios onde a questão racial ainda é uma ferida aberta.
