The thesis focuses on obstetric racism and its historical and social dimensions in the Brazilian context, especially its impact on black women s motherhood, addressing lingering psychological effects from pregnancy to postpartum. The research seeks to understand how experiences of obstetric racism influence the construction of motherhood for black women, as well as analyzing the relationship between mother and child after possible obstetric traumas, exploring the psychological aspects involved. The methodological approach was grounded in the principles of Narrative Psychology, which emphasizes the relevance of stories in the construction of identity and human experience. Psychology contributes to a more complete and contextualized understanding of obstetric racism in Brazil. This phenomenon, which manifests itself through discriminatory practices and obstetric violence directed at black women, has been little addressed in academic and literary fields. The absence of knowledge and discussions about obstetric racism contributes to the perpetuation of racial inequalities and invisibility of black women s experiences in the context of childbirth care. Therefore, there is an urgent need for more comprehensive research and studies on the topic, in order to increase awareness and appreciation of these women, ensuring fair and equal assistance.
