Afro-Brazilian Literature - Conexão Futura - Canal Futura It is in black or Afro-Brazilian literature that issues related to the identity and cultures of African and Afro-descendant peoples are addressed, through writing that values African cultural heritage and guarantees the right to memory of these peoples. In addition to learning about history, this type of literature also addresses the anguish of the soul and the daily lives of black characters. The recognition of black contributions to Brazilian literature is given through historically renowned names such as Machado de Assis, Cruz e Sousa and Lima Barreto. However, how is the production of black authors in Brazil currently going? We will talk about the recognition of literature in the studio with Conceição Evaristo, writer and PhD in Comparative Literature from UFF, Fernanda Felisberto, professor of Literature at UFRRJ and, online, with Eduardo de Assis Duarte, professor of Postgraduate Studies in Literature and Literary Studies at UFMG and coordinator of Literafro, Portal of Afro-Brazilian literature.
