Abstract
The Program Connections of Knowledge: Dialogue between the university and the popular communities is an Affirmative Policy of Permanence developed by the MEC since 2004, destined to ensure quality stay to the black students residing in favelas, specifically, in higher education. Beyond the material difficulties that are usually present as the first barrier to the stay of historically marginalized groups when they enter in Brazilian higher education, other silent forms such as lack of familiarity with academic issues, racial and territorial discrimination also act as obstacles to be overcome by these groups in academic space, that in the search for immediate solutions may develop as self-defense, the denial of their ethnic origins and/or social territories in the light for a permanence less troubled at university.
