Abstract
This article has the purpose of revising the process of formation about Negro identity: from subordinate condition to recognition, in historic and literary aspects. The discussion of the social trajectory of the Negro is made relevant to think about the transformation in social roles given to the Negro by several writers, especially Solano Trindade. In his production, the poet gives his voice to the oppressed man (Negro or White), to denounce social injustice. Solano Trindade’s speech invites the reader to a revision of the Negro condition and, by emphasizing the human character in his poetic production, he questions the fixed image covered by stereotypes. His production therefore proposes a (re) reading of the images that were impinged on the Negro man in the Diaspora, confronted with moral, political and social standards of the elite, with the objective of the recognizing the human character in the Negro. Thus, we verify how Trindade uses his poetry as a weapon, a poetic weapon to be used in the objective of combating human illness and restore each person's dignity.
Highlights
A literatura e a História oficial tiveram sempre um ponto em comum: retratar o trabalhador negro por meio do olhar do cidadão branco europeu
Language and Culture conveniência com os moldes colonialistas que impunham ao escravo o hábito de trabalhar, obedecer e ver sua ‘satisfação’ realizada pela fidelidade ao seu senhor
Por meio do poema Negros, o poeta evidencia que é necessário visualizar a diferença, a identidade heterogênica, a fim de perceber o entre-lugar da subjetividade pós-colonial, em que se evidencia a permanência do outro, a falta, a perda, a nãocoincidência dos sujeitos
Summary
A literatura e a História oficial tiveram sempre um ponto em comum: retratar o trabalhador negro (escravo) por meio do olhar do cidadão branco europeu. A ideologia branca, ao longo da história, tentou enfraquecer a participação do negro na vida social, por isso o poeta busca um verbo forte (lincharam) para definir a violência contra este homem que figura em seu poema.
