The research project aims to analysis of counter-hegemonic narratives produced and shared in digital media by Haitian immigrants in Brazil during 2015 and 2017. The analysis demonstrates how these narratives evidence racism experienced by these immigrants residing in Brazil. The analytical corpus is comprised of a selection of these media narratives as well as the examination of 15 in-depth interviews conducted with Haitian immigrants in the Southeast, South and Mid-East areas of Brazil.

Results show two dimensions in these narratives. On the one hand, the recognition and denunciation of racism marks the insertion and trajectory of Haitians in Brazil; on the other hand, the growing efforts for producing other representations in Haiti and Haitians in Brazil.
