The article deals with the importance of the Black Alternative Press (IAN) as a promoter of affirmative action for the Brazilian black population. To describe this importance, we articulate the Historical-Social Theory of the Formation of the Individual proposed by the study group of Prof. Dr. Newton Duarte. We perceive and consider that his Theory allows us to see more clearly the paths and (mis)paths that human beings follow in the process of forming their individuality: in-itself or for-itself. Thus, the Study allowed us to conclude that the political-ideological struggles of the IAN as affirmative actions were carriers of individuality for themselves.
