Abstract: 

This article analyzes the discourses produced by four Spanisch women of African descent in the documentary Afro, así es mi pelo (2013), directed by Javier Sánchez Salcedo for the Mundo Negro platform. The goals are, first, to 'close read' the documentary's articulation of concepts such as 'race' and 'negritude' in the interviewees' emplotment of their hair and to analyze the functions these emplotments have in the sense of Hayden White's term (1973). Second, it compares the discourses and the concepts emploted in the documentary with those used in other linguistic areas of the "Romania", such as that of 'Négritude'. In doing so, this article presents first operational hypotheses on the circulation of audiovisual discourses about Afro-descendance in the "Romania", which, in turn, will contribute to systematizing these discourses in contemporary Spain.
