The invisibility of Afro-Brazilian culture is present cultural phenomenon in the Médio Vale do Itajaí, in the state of Santa Catarina. This invisibility can be exemplified by the calendar of commemorative dates in the municipalities of the Médio Vale do Itajaí, which does not have holidays celebrating Black Consciousness Day (November 20). In addition, monuments with references to slavery and similar themes that embody the municipalities of the region. It is also imperceptible the presence of a historiography that points the presence of blacks in the local history. Faced with these facts, a bibliographical review of the writing of the history of the Médio Vale do Itajaí (historiography) was carried out to try to cast a glance at what motives make the discussion of Afro-Brazilian culture restricted in schools.
