R. Ferreira\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book investigates the way in which African- American and Afro-Brazilian prose fictions perceive and critique the concept of \"racial democracy\" in Brazil. African-Americans view Brazil as a paradise to escape segregation and violence in the 1920s since Brazilian government exports this idea about the country. In the 1960s and 1970s, there is a change in their perspective as some African-Americans visit Brazil. They realize and question racial harmony as they conclude it is a veiled racism and disillusionment. Some Afro-Brazilian writers, at first, portrait Afro-Brazilian characters as oppressed and marginalized, but they are not fully aware of that since there has never been any institutionalized segregation. Later, in the 1960s and 1970s, Afro- Brazilians' movements flourish, influenced by American's movement, bringing self-awareness and a sense of identity to deconstruct the \"myth of racial democracy.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 196\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 11, 2009\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48873958539513,"sku":"9783639120516","price":105.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/VKP2zijjGs9783639120516.webp?v=1787321362","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/racial-democracy-in-literary-works-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
