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 […]

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 […]

With political leaders, it is difficult to stay unbiased. I would recommend starting with the President’s actions, then add a section detailing both positive and negative views of his leadership; both are biased […]

I think focusing on soccer is a great idea because of its prevalence around the world. I think it will be important to focus on how the elite, athletes, and middle/lower-class citizens viewed this propaganda.

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 […]

There is an ongoing discussion in the United States about our justice system and equality, in relation to endemic racism, bias and injustice. It bears the question of just how “American” these problems are. It app […]

As someone who has never heard about this festival, I think expanding the article is a great plan so people like me can read it. I think the sources you identified are very interesting.

While this is a broad topic, I think a little bit of work can make a big difference. I think looking at the different constitutions is a really cool idea to trace change.

For my research project, I will be expanding on the Wikipedia article on the Carandiru Massacre of 1992. The issue I see with this article is that while it does give all the facts, the cause, the aftermath and the […]
