Before the fall semester, Brazil’s UERJ closed classes indefinitely due to a lack of funding to the college. UERJ is Rio de Janeiro’s state school, like Ohio’s Ohio State University. The school had […]

In the reading last night, the author uses the “Black Box” recordings from an airplane crashing. The way these recordings are made, is that the cockpit records what the pilots talk about throughout the flight […]

I agree with your conclusion that her intent should not be viewed in a malicious manner. Though, I do believe that it is important for any artist to consider how the world will interpret your work. This does not […]

“Indirectness” is apparently one of the “signs of a bad boss”…or is it? The article argues otherwise, noting that individuals have their own preferences; some prefer indirect speech as they perceive it to be […]

Today in Modern Brazil, we began with a discussion on modern Brazilian music, talking about many of the countries top artists and their current popular songs. Dr. Holt even ended looked up their top 50 songs on […]

Throughout all the essays we have read in class there is one thing that almost always comes to my mind and that is how our education system teaches the Civil Rights Movement versus what really happened in the […]

I would recommend discussion specifically what political issues are addressed through sports in Brazil. Do sports have protests and demonstrations the way they do here, for example? What are the demographics of […]

William Barnett commented on the post, Wiki Update: Racism in Brazil, on the site History 217 Modern Brazil 8 years, 8 months ago
In terms of historical context, I would also recommend talking about Brazil’s declaration of a “post-racial” society. This declaration seemed a bit abrupt and was never truly idealized. I think that could tie into […]

During the Wikipedia training, they were very focused on making sure that the topic is notable. I would make sure that there is enough research in English, and that she actually had a large impact on Brazilian […]

I see where you’re coming from Kevante, but do you think that was intentionally done to maybe hint at the limited tolerance of queer people in some parts of the African continent? I personally did not notice it, b […]

I agree, the film was amazing! It did in fact hit home with unimaginable representation of the African continent, and black history. One misconception about Black History is that it is limited to the Western […]
