The principal symbol of the Afro-Brazilian struggle and resistance in Brazil is Zumbi dos Palmares. Zumbi was born in Alagoas in 1655 and died in 1695 on November 20, a date commemorated throughout Brazil as the National Day of Black Consciousness.
(Source: BRAZZIL - News from Brazil)

In the cartoon, cop says: Zumbi my ass, hands to the wall, nigger!

Originally published in Contraponto, bulletin of Sindicato dos Servidores das Justicas Federais no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, SISEJUFE.

Mood: Torment ~beemote Jun 24, 2011
Acho que os negros se escondem muito por trás dessa moda de "racismo". Os Racionais, por exemplo, vivem chorando mágoas de excluídos e injustiçados pelos brancos, mas não pensam duas vezes antes de chamar um branco da classe média de "branquinho playboy", "puta pálida de butique" e por aí vai... Acho quye, se o negro quer ser respeitado, que se destaque com argumentos e atitudes dignas, vide Martin Luther King Jr. fez.

P.S: Antes que me joguem pedras, sou negro descendente dos Houssais.

Mas é claro que o Brasil é o país mais racista da face da Terra; lembrem-se da tarefa inacabada que Joaquim Nabuco nos apontou: "Não basta abolir a escravidão, é preciso destruir a sua obra!"

O Brasil é hipocrita! Somente isto...

TODOS falam, não sou racista, mas na hora do vamo vê cada um da uma desculpa...

I did not know this, I love learning something new. People outside countries like this never learn about it, you really have to search to know something about it. Thank you for sharing. I am a big fan of your work by the way! God bless you.

What a great way of both letting us foreigners know of such an important day in Brazil (not to mention Zumbi's story ([link]) is rather interesting: quite fit for a romantic-revolutionary theatrical performance) and addressing the overtly annoying but saldy true reality of racism among members of the same ethnic groups (this is especially true in latin america, alas).

Well done! =D
