Summary: The present dissertation proposes to discuss the issue of race and class in Brazil from the work of Florestan Fernandes. Reconstituting the main aspects of his intellectual trajectory, the text highlights the events and conjunctures that led to the meeting / relationship with the racial question, one of the central focuses of the Paulista School of Sociology. Part of the present proposal is to present an interpretation of the author and his main contributions to the intellectual field of race in Brazil. The work is bibliographical, using the works of the author and at the same time his commentators and critics. In this sense, a discussion of Florestan Fernandes interpretation of the racial question is first emphasized in the book The integration of the Negro in class society. The text advances with a proposal to read the studies of Florestan Fernandes on the "bourgeois revolution in Brazil" and "dependent capitalism". This is because, when evidencing the author's structural reading on capitalism and the position of Brazil in it, the theme of assimilation of the black will gain unique outlines. Keywords: Bourgeois Revolution, Dependent Capitalism, Race and Class.
