This way of thinking is still present in Brazilian society, not by territorial settlements, but by negotiations that have been imposed on our society that has been reproduced through time. Today, these thoughts have been remained in the power of racism performed in different ways. Besides, a literature review shows that there is no way to separate the word intercultualism from its construction based on the idea of post-abyssal thinking. To be able to overcome feelings of superiority or inferiority, that is, beyond a multicultural thought, interculturalism promotes intercultural thoughts that may break the abyssal barriers by integrating different groups.
