Simple, us and South Africa had jim crow and apartheid
Ah yes, so you couldn't really have a counter insurgence in that period. I recall Gilberto Gil had to
dip and live in London for a while.
That just leads me to wonder why they didn't seek help from Cuba and Russia at the time
I'm surprised how these brazilo-cacs are more racists than actual Euros ...

Funny is that a lot of these cacs are actually more African than European
About asking for help, because of the fear of the cold war i think that nobody was willing to intervene in another country, on the contrary. The US was already allies and supporters of this regime, there is evidence that CIA agents along with the American ambassador in Brazil had a direct participation in the fall of then-President Jango. Cuba was seen as an enemy of the government and Russia had no close relationship with Brazil at this time, and even if they had, we were under Uncle Sam's wings.
People think that things here are sweet, when until a few decades ago it was common to see scenes like that in the ghettos.
Only God knows how much atrocity has been and is still committed in that country.
so basically yall face the same issues as us in america, as those in the caribbean, and black skinned people all over the world....it almost seems like...white supremacy is a global phenomenonI'll say it again, how things work here in Brazil.
We black Brazilians have a close bond with our African roots, over centuries, silently fighting for equality, denouncing the oppression and segregation in which we are imposed every day. But these movements rarely get any media, because that's what the government here is so concerned about hiding. The same Government that considers 53% of the population BLACK!
I bet foreigners rarely associate such images with Brazil:
Black march(1988) under the military eyes

From the outside, it seems that nothing is happening here and that we are not doing anything. Brazil is one of the most racist countries in the world, we are discriminated against and we fight against it every day, however, the policy of "let it go" by the government ends up covering up the segregation that exists here.

You really came into my thread on some smart-dumb babble about autonomy.
I asked for pro-black movements in Brazil..
