“ Unless we do something about this, my children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle with tensions having built so high that it is going to explode at some point. We have got to make some move on this.”

Racism in Brazil (Opet Demokrati delaji rozumny veci)
Delal jsem s Brazilcem a ten mi rikal, ze oni tam vyrazne rasove problemy nemeli. Tenhle vytazek to tak nejak potvrzuje. Lidi spolu mohou zit, jen se nema doma rasizmus ucit. Rasizmus neni od prirody, ten se uci z pokoleni na pokoleni.
1980s to present: The Emergence of a Race Conscious State
The common narrative of Brazil as a racial democracy persisted until the 1990s.
In 1985, military rule officially ended and the year marked the beginning of
re-democratization. The public greatly influenced the writing of the 1988
constitution and black rights organization successfully petitioned for the
inclusion of an anti-racist clause that would make racism a punishable offense.
In the 1990s, with the reintroduction of democratic systems, the use of NGOs and
international organizations brought color consciousness and issues of persisting
racial
inequality to the forefront of national discussions.[15] In particular, the 2001
Durban conference (World conference on Racism) attracted large amounts of
attention to existing racial inequality.[14] The issue stayed on the front page
of national newspapers for months and even prompted comments from the president.
In 2003, President Luiz Lula made race a central issue of his presidency and the
government began to initiate affirmative action programs.[16]
