Sumario:This article aims to study the dynamics about black identity from the so-called Brazilian Black Twitter. For this purpose, an ethnographic survey was carried out on Twitter during 2020, based on the interaction with events and topics of discussion on the Twitter platform. From the research, we seek to understand how the experiences of the named black cyberculture collaborate for the dynamics of the constitution of the different identities of blackness on Twitter. As a result, we observe the constitution of Black Twitter as a fickle and complex space, of collaboration and dispute dynamics, essential to understand the constitution of black identities in contemporary times.
