This article presents the results of a study that aimed to analyze the perception of psychologists about racism in health institutions. These professionals integrate psychology sectors of three hospitals located in the city of Belo Horizonte. The methodology uses semi-structured interviews and content analysis. The results indicate the absence of critical view among professionals regarding ethnic-racial relations and their implications to the health field, reproducing the ideology of social equality in the country, what, in turn, does not contribute to the implementation of actions that promote equity.
