Sumario:In this paper I analyze the spatial experiences of young haitians in the cities of Córdoba and Rosario, Argentina, based on racialization processes that, organized according to different local dynamics, temporalities and particular situations, are presented as a constant traction for development of their migratory projects and social aspirations. From a qualitative approach based on conducting in-depth interviews, participant observation and documentary analysis, I address various tensions linked to the production and reproduction of national borders and some of the ways in which the current forms of stratification of the human mobility. In the analysis I show how the experiences of Haitians are configured through specific and changing articulations between race, gender and national origin, in connection with the emergence of new spatialities that are structured based on the arrival –and racialization– of different migratory groups to the country during the last decade.
