Abstract
Starting from the diagnosis of structural racism in the country and the need to ensure racial equity in health management and care, we conducted a qualitative research, from the perspective of institutional analysis, in a Child Psychosocial Care Center (CAPSij) to discuss mental health and racial relations. Therefore, we interviewed professionals of this service focusing on such relationships in two dimensions: health care and service management, which were discussed in the light of the literature on psychology and race relations. This paper presents part of the research results organized as follows: we initially discussed the National Policy for Integral Health of the Black Population (PNSIPN) and the Race / Color Question as important tools of recognition and intervention in relation to racial inequalities in health / mental health. Then we present and discuss the interviews with the manager and administrative agent of the analyzed service, which focused, respectively, on how the service includes racial relations in its work project and how it experiences the collection of race / color. We conclude by highlighting the necessary consideration of racial relations as an anti-asylum issue, which we call the health services aquilombamento (reunion). The decolonization of care practices and the inclusion of Afro-diasporic theories and knowledge can increase the power of health action that contributes to the promotion of racial equity and the deinstitutionalization of racism.
