Abstract
Manoel Pedro Cardoso Vieira (1848-1880) was a free black man and a member of the 19th century elites with a career and training in the field of law, he was also a teacher, journalist, poet and politician. As general deputy for the province of Paraíba do Norte, he gave speeches in 1879 regarding latent themes in 19th century society such as drought in the North and Chinese immigration. After his death, his name experienced everyday forgetfulness, but he won the honors of memorization through the chair of immortal as patron of chair number 10 at the Paraibana Academy of Letters and the naming of a street in the capital of Paraiba in his honor. Studies about black subjects who managed to become members of the elites in the midst of slavery contribute to complex the analyzes regarding the black experience in the history of Brazil, giving prominence to those subjects that surpassed the norm.
