This article analyzes how the Afro-Brazilian Movement from the state of Paraíba uses information sources from the Web with the purpose of disseminating racial and ethnic information. The information sources can be used as a channel for the dissemination of racial and ethnic information to assist the socially and ethnically invisible groups in the current information-knowledge-learning-communication society, in which prejudice, discrimination and racism are part of the subjects' daily life. The research involved the Afro-Brazilian Movement from the State of Paraíba. The participants were four activists from the following groups: Center for Afro-Brazilian/women Students and Afro-Brazilian/men Students from the Federal University of Paraíba, Organization of Afro-Brazilian Women from the state of Paraíba. The results showed that the most common tool for disseminating information was via e-mail. We conclude that by using the information sources, the Afro-Brazilian Movement/blog will serve as a virtual space for storing the information collected.
