The weakness of Brazil's black consciousness movement is commonly
attributed to the fragility of Afro-Brazilian ethnic identity. In a
major account, John Burdick challenges this view by revealing the
many-layered reality of popular black consciousness and identity in
an arena that is usually overlooked: that of popular Christianity.
"Blessed Anastacia" describes how popular Christianity confronts
everyday racism and contributes to the formation of racial
identity. The author concludes that if organizers of the black
consciousness movement were to recognize the profound racial
meaning inherent in this area of popular religiosity, they might be
more successful in bridging the gap with its poor and working-class
constituency.
