This book provides an insight into the Afro-Brazilian experience of
racism in Brazil from the 19th Century to the present day,
exploring people of African Ancestry's responses to racism in the
context of a society where racism was present in practice, though
rarely explicit in law. Race and Afro-Brazilian Agency in Brazil
examines the variety of strategies, from conservative to radical,
that people of African ancestry have used to combat racism
throughout the diaspora in Brazil. In studying the legacy of
color-blind racism in Brazil, in contrast to racially motivated
policies extant in the US and South Africa during the twentieth
century, the book uncovers various approaches practiced by
Afro-Brazilians throughout the country since the abolition of
slavery towards racism, unique to the Brazilian experience.
Studying racism in Brazil from the latter part of the nineteenth
century to the present day, the book examines areas such as art and
culture, politics, and tradition. This book will be of interest to
scholars and students of Brazilian history, diaspora studies,
race/ethnicity, and Luso-Brazilian studies.
