SUMMARY:

In this research, the dissemination of prejudice through racist expressions propagated in the meme genre was addressed. The discussion and analysis of this problem is necessary in the classroom, since in some situations they are not presented clearly, as they are disseminated in a subtle and natural way without awareness and reflection on the stereotypes and discrimination they carry. For this reason, it is necessary to create spaces for discussions, seeking interpret their meanings, considering what they express in the linguistic, social and cultural dimensions. In this way, we conducted research, aiming to analyze and discuss racist expressions contained in memes in Portuguese language classes. For that, we base the research through lexical studies on Phraseology (MONTEIRO-PLANTIN, 2014), and the meme genre (FERREIRA et al., 2022). Methodologically, the proposal started from a qualitative action research (GIL, 2000) (GIL, 2000), developed based on a didactic sequence applied in a 7th grade class of a public school in the interior of the state of Paraíba, Brasil. At the end of the investigation, we raise awareness about the causes and consequences caused by racism disseminated through language, with a view to contributing to the training of students capable of reading and interpreting texts produced in different genres, using the memes genre as an example. As a product generated from the application of the didactic sequence, we, developed, together with the student, list of memes with racist expressions, which was presented as a final product, allowing the explanation of the studied knowledge and the importance of conscience in lexical choices in order avoid the propagation of racism.
