With the mass culture, the discourse of racial stereotype becomes more effective of cultural production, having the soap opera the function of spread myths, values and ways of life of the ruling class and ensure, through the racial stereotype, the maintenance of its exclusionary social model, based on a racial and cultural hierarchy created by the colonial discourse.
