O objetivo do estudo consistiu em examinar de que forma os
anúncios publicitários têm retratado os indivíduos afrodescendentes em termos de estereótipos e estigmas. Ele consistiu de análise qualitativa interpretativa em duas propagandas de automóveis tendo como arcabouço teórico a Teoria dos Estigmas e como referenciais metodológicos pesquisas anteriores semelhantes. Os resultados da análise revelaram que os anúncios publicitários contribuem para o reforço da ideia de invisibilidade social dos indivíduos afrodescendentes e também que ainda há predominância de caracterizações impregnadas de estigmatizações.
