  This article aims to analyze articles and books published on the theme of racism,

  discrimination and racial prejudice in preschoolers. The hypothesis is raised that since

  stigma, but little is said about it and, mainly, little is done about it, due to

  to the existing silencing when it comes to racism. Considered the most striking phase of human life, it is during this period that we learn the pillars necessary to support us throughout life and that will directly reflect on our future experiences.
