This paper aims to discuss ways of racism present in Geography textbooks. We question whether the law 10.6390/03, in the case of textbooks, has produced results. Thereunto, we present our research results with Geography textbooks approved by the Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD) 2010. We count 2.9 white characters for each black one and this number varied according to the book's publisher. Even with the announcement of the book, which must observe the law 10.639/03, blacks are still far from being represented according to the population proportion of Brazilian society, which indicates that surveillance on law enforcement must also be attentive to textbooks.
