This present thesis entitled "The Ambiguous Black Condition in Cuba: Racial Relations and Collective Anti-Racist Mobilizations" analyses Afro-Cuban activism in different contexts from the narratives of social agents who are protagonist in the process of re-signifying discourses related to the black heritage and to racism in the country.In the thesis, I address the ways in which racism materializes within Cuban institutions and society.While focusing on the single American country in which socialism is the proclaimed form of government for almost six decades, I search for a broader overview of the strategies for the struggle undertaken by afrodescendents in the context of the African Diaspora in the Americas, in highlighting its interactions with other Latin-American countries, notably Brazil.The theoretical approach permeates studies in social science about racial relations, and the critical reading of concepts about civil society and social movements, in the light of the Cuban particularities
