Basketball is gaining popularity there, but it needs to be in the areas outside of just Sao Paulo, you can say right now it's a middle class to rich persons sport there. My thoughts are that Team USA winning with an all black team will get more black kids involved in basketball there, because there's more exposure and kids will think "He looks like me, I can do that". The last couple players they've sent to the NBA have been mostly black, and the next one has a chance to be good
6'6" PG with a 7'0" wingspan.
You already gave up on Brunoit's so colllllllldddddd in the T.
Thats the problem, you're going off phenotype like I stated earlier, you have to take yourself out of the american mindset. They're about 300 years ahead of america in terms of mixing, they started in the 1500, america the 1800. Neymar can dye his hair blonde and slip into the european catergory at first glance, but then when he's not straightening his hair, he looks like what he is, a mixed breed. Neymar's kid is blonde btw, when he grows up you will think he's white, but Neymar's pops is black, which means Neymar's blonde hair white baby has a black grand father, you see? This all works on the black side too, many of them are 'black' but actually have eiuro ancestry, its just a generation or 2 back. When it comes to brazil, you can't go by phenotype, believe it or not majority of them are mixed. The reason they're not as dark as say, Dominicans is because they had a white influx in the 1800s which the govt promoted...but that didnt end up working because those new comers ended up mixing too
Things got real mixed in brazil because the economic lines are much more blurred as they are majority poor, whereas in America the lines are drawn and things are much more organized and magnified. we also had laws segregating us.
Brazil looks like that in the Northeast, it just depends on where you go in the country, it basically goes from white (German) in the south, to mixed in the middle, to black in the northeast to Native looking folks in the far north.
These are pics from Salvador -
In my experience, Salvador has a lot more of what you're looking for in regards to what people look like.
Im going off the video you told to watch and my family isnt American. I understand that Brazil is more mixed than the US but it still looks very black. In the video, before being accepted as black you had to have a picture taken and examined. America's views on blackness are far more beneficial than Brazil's. America wouldnt of had any of its pro black movements if they viewed race the same way as Brazilians. The video said that 2/3 of their poor is mixed/black.
I was asking about representation/ equality in Brazil as a whole
There's extreme classism there which prevents a lot of black people from leaving their socio-economic status, there are a lot of poor mixed and whites living among them that can never make it out either. 
alot of people are counted as mulattos due to their looks alone without techically being mulatto...the point is even if true Brazil's lilly white Olympic teams don't reflect there demographics countrywhat does that have to do with the fact that Brazil is predominately mixed?
trust that race in particularl protecting their white privilege/power is constantly on cac Brazilians minds though it's probably not enough of a priority for black/Afro descent Brazilians which is why the vast majority dwell 3rd world level slums in what is suppposed to be a wealthy developed country and are are light years behind AAs as far as advancment of their people/upward mobility in their country despite making a much large percentage of Brazil than AAs in Amerikkkasalami eggs and bacon my bruthas
not even brazilians are thinking about this race stuff, americans so backward
dont give a fukk what color they are as long as they lose in the soccer
Even the basketball team only has like 3 brehs
then I check out the other Brazilian athletes/teams and it's mostly the sametrend with a few Brazilian negritos scattered here and there....all these Brazilian teams wouldn't loo out o pace repping Spain or Porugual
am i really supposed believe cac Brazilians are the best athletes in the country
y
them nikkas been bleachin since the Olmecs 
some of the most foul ofays I ever met in life was Brazilian but I keep it in perspective cuz they gun pay a karmic debt in life regardless... shyttin on they mothers 
( Black Women ) But yeah..they worship their genetics, their rhythm, their music, their sex, all of which they get from they Ancestors, Black women.
..but refuse to honor her in physical form....
Look at this shyt here...Note from BW of Brazil: You see, this is one of the reasons why African descendants around the world need to be able to communicate with each other beyond cultural and language differences. Earlier today we brought you a story concerning the Brazilian gymnast Arthur Nory Mariano. His name first appeared on this blog after a racist incident in May of 2015 in which he compared his black teammate to a trash bag.
Sent to Globo (news) the video shows the gymnast Arthur Nory Mariano comparing the black athlete Ângelo Assumpção to a defective cell phone, with a black screen, and a trash bag

The problem and danger is that rather than reacting and creating all-black organizations to prepare themselves for such behavior, millions of black Brazilians will continue to believe that this problem is simply a case of a few ‘bad apples’ and continue the desire to blend into white Brazilian society.The message here? Whether one is a lawyer, a doctor, a police sergeant, or a gold medal winning athlete, in Brazil, when one is black none of this matters!

yep Afro/black Brazilian fall victim to police brutality murder at something like 15x a higher rate than AAs, have no political power or significant middle class, lag behind all Brazilians except for maybe natives as far education or quality of life but none of those facts have anything to do with deep in bedded racism in Brazilian society and Brazil is a mixed up colorblind rainbow nationnikkas is real late to the party on Brazilian skin politics
when pele was coming up brazil was about to start their europeanization of their football style because they were trying to get rid of the ginga and promote more players of european descent after they lost the world cup final at home in 1950. african jungle football as they called it was out and playing like the italians and germans (who these white brazilians were descendants of) was in. fortunately pele came and and the ginga lived on. but then he went white women chasing and diluted his bloodlines like the rest of the brazilian c00ns trying to erase their blackness.
