While brazilian society's relationship with race can be quite nuanced, the left-of-center political discourse is largely analogous to the US in this aspect (form my non-american perspective at least). So yeah, the translation was pretty accurate.


Yes, I came to similar conclusions after digging into the topic a bit more.

It was an interesting learning experience.

I wonder if/how much the Brazilians are influenced by the Americans here.

(Going on a tangent: I remember during a very brief stint working at Facebook, when they were blathering on about 'Black history month' or something like that. I have nothing against 'Black history month' in the US. But this was in the Singaporean office, and we have more relevant issues in South East Asia, including issues of local racism, too. I can see why Facebook (or Meta..) would care as an American company, but it was really weird seeing corporate project that into South East Asia.)
