The thesis entitled "Protestantism and Black Identity under a discursive approach: Dilemmas and Possible Connections" sought to investigate, first, to what extent, or whether, the web of beliefs of the religious system under analysis has influenced These Black men and women, who regularly attend church -in the marking of differences (operated through symbolic systems of representation) that 'produce' their racial identities, considered here as a social, historical, cultural and plural construction that implies the construction of an ethnic/racial group's view of itself, based on the relationship with the other groups.Secondly, and with no intention of in-depth reflections, this work aimed to reflect on some particularities that would have favored North American Black Protestants to make use of the religious sphere for greater engagement in sociopolitical issues.As for its relevance, data from the last IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística) Demographic Census indicate that between 2000 and 2010 the number of evangelicals grew five times more than the Brazilian population, corresponding to a total of 42.3 million people twenty-eight years old on average; Furthermore, the data reveal that 53.9% of this total are Black people (2010).If we consider that when we analyze what people say in the stories that emerge in the interviews we can refer to broader sociocultural structures, the inquiry that generated this thesis is aligned with the theoretical assumptions of Narrative Analysis -an Applied Linguistics' transdisciplinary discipline that draws on areas such as Sociology, Anthropology, social Psychology and Language Studies.The main understandings formulated after the conclusion of this work, which can be added to those already available on the topic, are: the religious Coherence System to which the Black people adheres contributes to the fabrication of his or her racial identity; the PUC-Rio -Certificação Digital No 1712224/CA religious rituals constitute a key element for the construction of a politically marked racial identity; the theological perspective called Black Theology contributes to a better racial literacy, even giving to the concept of race a value closer to what it has in the black church context; and finally the understanding that mainly the subjectivity -which consists of a positive or negative response to the discursive practices that hail us -but not only the discourses that circulate in the ecclesiastical environment can build or deconstruct the racial identities of black men and women in these religious communities
