Afro-Brazilians are presented with a whole range of identity choices, from how to classify oneself to whether one votes for political candidates based on shared racial experiences. Between Black and Brown argues that Afro-Brazilian activists’ continued exploration of blackness confronts anti-blackness while complicating understandings of what it means to be black. This book raises complex questions about current black struggles in Brazil and beyond, including the black movements’ political initiatives and antiracist agenda.
