The period that cover from 1820 to 1850 is the mark for the beginning of a construction and solidification of a politic of public instruction, with its purpose of educate the provincial people of Minas Gerais.This research to analyze the analogy level between this process and the more expressive segment inside of Minas Gerais demographic structure, that is to say, the freedom black population, whom were qualified through different terminologies (pretos, pardos, crioulos, cabras), which it was used to determinates adjacencies and distances within the slavery world.In order to carry through this analysis, we used as reference a census documentation, in which in 1831, it has tried to count the population of all districts of Minas Gerais, as well it has registered the children that was in school.From this census register we built a racial profile of the school in Minas, in which it was collated with information supplied by other documents and they had disclosed a majority presence of black people in areas connected to the formal education.These data were analyzed from recent studies about the population of Minas Gerais, mainly those ones who tries to surpass the theoretician structures which it has reduced the slavery.The interpretation that we shaped concerning the presence of Blacks in the schools of Minas Gerais reveals that this institution was one of the elements motioned by this group with the objective to have their avowal into the social space.This has determined the realization of a critical analysis concerning the educational historiography that traditionally has interpreted the school as an institution in which black people had established sporadical or unplanned contacts
