Examinamos la realidad de los afrodescendientes en una Argentina que buscó “blanquearse” tras el siglo XIX para atraer inmigrantes europeos. La mayoría de estas personas eran esclavos y esclavas, aunque también los hubo libres y libertos. El intento de blanquear la historia ha desembocado en la invisibilización y estigmatización de este grupo humano a pesar de su contribución en la formación de Argentina. Por todo ello, nuestro objetivo es recuperar parte de su memoria.}, abstract = {This article focuses on the analysis of the news related to people of black-African origin contained in La Gaceta Mercantil: diario comercial, politico y literario (La Gaceta Mercantil: commercial, political and literary newspaper) de Buenos Aires during the years from 1823 to 1826.
