O estudo abrange os anos 20 e 30,período que corresponde à predominância de enfermeiras estrangeiras na direção da instituição. Os objetivos traçados são: descrever as dificuldades de ingresso de mulheres negras/mestiças no corpo discente, nos primórdios da escola, analisar as dificuldades de inserção de mulheres negras/mestiças no corpo discente, nos primórdios da escola e discutir as circunstâncias que possibilitaram que algumas mulheres negras/mestiças viessem a se diplomar pela EAN. A análise de documentos escritos e fotográficos acrescidos de depoimentos me levam a afirmar que na EAN havia práticas veladas de racismo, e as moças negras/mestiças que lograram entrar na escola tiveram que romper amarras e transpor barreiras. / Study was accomplished in the social history perspective and has as purpose the acess of negress women into the students staff of Anna Nery Nursing School, coming from the racial prejudice.
