Racism in Brazil is not for nothing. It is structural. Brazil was the last country in the Americas to abolish slavery. Up until 130 years ago, trafficked black people were kept in subhuman working conditions, without pay and subjected to beatings. When slavery was abolished in 1888, no rights were guaranteed to black people. Without access to land or any type of compensation or compensation for so much time spent in forced labor, many remained on the farms where they worked or were destined to work hard and informally. Subhuman conditions have not disappeared. Maria Sylvia, president of the Geledés portal, and Helena Teodoro, a volunteer at the Institute of Philosophy and Social Sciences - IFCS, explain how racism was structured in Brazil during and after slavery, and how the image of black people was associated with vagrancy, subalternity, and dirtiness. It is no wonder that the most arduous tasks, the worst pay and the cruelest forms of punishment are still reserved for black people. Participants: Maria Sylvia de Oliveira, Lawyer and President of Geledés; Helena Teodoro, the first black female doctor in the country and Volunteer at the Institute of Philosophy and Social Sciences - IFCS.
