Perceptions of those who ask: what is your color?

This article reports the results of an action research based on the Integral Health Policy of the Black Population conducted with the aim of providing knowledge to basic healthcare workers of the Municipal Health Secretariat in the city of Porto Alegre. There are few studies about this Policy, which is still an important means of social inclusion acknowledgement and discrimination tackling. By collaborating with the qualification of the health service teamwork processes, the research sets out to assist in the operationalization of SUS' works and contribute to a more egalitarian and fair society, where the subjects have their rights guaranteed.
