Abstract:

This exploratory project examines the development of Afro-Brazilian protest politics. I review the existing explanations for the relative lack of black movement formations in Brazil and offer a critique of state centered explanations of race based movements. Using event data and newspaper articles about race in Brazil, I explore patterns and trends in Afro-Brazilian politics from 1985-2000 in an attempt to understand the level and nature of protest politics among black Brazilians.
