Abstract
The text in question aims to observe the Black Cities, here, interpreted by small and medium-sized cities. I analyze how racial ethnic segregation reflects in small and medium-sized cities in Brazil. In the text, I initially selected and analyzed the universe of the hundred largest cities, proportionally (%), the ten largest cities with black representation. To understand inequalities and segregation, I analyzed the average nominal income between whites and blacks in Brazil and in selected cities. Among the interpretations of the picture of small and medium cities, black cities are located in the northeast of the country, in the states of Maranhão and Bahia, especially in Bahia, in the Recôncavo region. Nowadays, black cities suffer an impact of racial ethnic segregation different from large centers, due to historical and local aspects that are particular to the territory.
