Brazil’s New Racial Politics captures the myriad questions and problems unleashed by a growing awareness of the ways racism structures Brazilian society. The authors bridge the gap between scholarship and activism as they tackle issues ranging from white privilege to black power, from government policy to popular advocacy, and from historical injustices to recent victories. The result is a rich exploration of the conflicting social realities characterizing Brazil today, as well as their far-reaching political implications UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781626371279 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781626371279 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781626371279/original ER -
