Resumen

Objective
The objective of this systematic review is to identify and analyze studies that address the relationship between racism and Early Childhood Education.
Method
Using the descriptors ‘racism’, ‘racial prejudice’, and ‘racial discrimination’, separately associated with the term ‘early childhood education’, a search was carried out in the following databases: Periódicos Capes, Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Web of Science, and PubMed. This review followed methodological recommendations from the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA).
Results
Initially, 1,240 publications were identified, which, after applying the inclusion criteria, were reduced to 20. These 20 publications were analyzed in terms of authorship, year, location, method, objective, and results.
Conclusion
Despite an increase in recent years, the number of articles in this area is still limited, indicating the need to expand studies on this topic due to its relevance.
