Abstract

Stemming from a post-discovery and fictitious colonization wavelength, the notion of race in Brazil was the result of the servitude of the aborigines, and the slavery of the blacks deported from the XV century. All in all, using Anibal's concept of Coloniality of Power Quijano, this article reads racial Democracy still in the twentieth century as a myth and not a reality, in a country bruised by social inequalities. A phenomenon fought, by a series of audible socio-political reforms adopted under Luís Ignacio Lula Da Silva’s Brazil rule. In fact, the objective of this article is to shed on segregationism and neo-segregationism, yesterday, and today eradicated by the Brazilian state.
