Yeah so good there, but i am still wondering why some friends of mine are crazy to leave the country as i did... Oh yeah maybe because of the low salary and the high prices even more for the imported... Or is it because of the they are from Sao Paulo and there are still lots of violence there... Because now Rio more then ever is the " capital of the country", but its ok who cares about Sao Paulo? Instead of beach we have the Tiete, or the polution in the air, or very bad infrastructure...
My favourite Brazilian historical characters: 2. Zumbi dos Palmares, the last of the military leaders of the Quilombo (Kimbundu word: "kilombo," of the North Mbundu Bantu language in Angola, meaning "warrior village or settlement") of Palmares. The Quilombo dos Palmares were an old South American republic, which included the present day Brazilian coastal state of Alagoas, Brazil
My favourite Brazilian historical characters : 1. Captain" Virgulino Ferreira da Silva, better known as Lampião (Oil Lamp), was the most famous leader of a Cangaço band, marauders and outlaws who terrorized the Brazilian Northeast's feudal farmers, in the 1920s and 1930s.
On the surface, Brazil may look colour blind, but that's an illusion. Do not confuse racial co-existence with racial equality. Brazil has always been, is, and will continue to be, in the forseeable future, a "colour coded" country
(Black) Brazilians have never launched a civil-rights movement like that in the United States nor developed national Black leaders in the mold of Martin Luther King Jr. or South Africa's Nelson Mandela. Also non-existent are Black civic groups with the power of U.S. institutions such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People or financial networks that could spur Black entrepreneurship.
Brazil needs to redo its history, and work around the premise and the perspective of the (African) Brazilian not only as a slave but as the one who changed Brazilian society, the one who constructed Brazilian society, who constructed the wealth of Brazil. Despite the disparities, debate about race is rare in Brazil., and problems are more felt than spoken about.
And although Brazilians regularly eat foods and use words that originated in Africa, their history books talk almost exclusively about the deeds of white heroes. The day of acknowledgment is still far off, and Brazil, a country with one of the biggest gaps between rich and poor in the world, is sharply divided between its Whites and non-Whites.
Rio's violence-torn slums, like all the slums scattered around Brazil, in major and minor cities, (Black) Brazilians make up the majority of residents. Two-thirds of the country's homicide victims in 2004 were Black. Despite their numbers, (Black) Brazilians have long been poorer, less educated, less healthy and less powerful than (White) Brazilians.
I LOVE Brazil and own a luxury Condo in Maceio, but, how come, in this video, ALL the "movers and shakers" (business moguls) in Rio are (White) Brazilians? Where are the (Black) Brazilians? country of 190 million people -- it has the world's second-largest Black (African descent) population (90 million), behind Nigeria's 160 million.
This cynicism is shared by ordinary Brazilians, who live every day with the country's crushing inequalities. But cynicism should give way to action. It is hard to argue that race is not the dividing factor in Brazil and that racial mixing, no matter how prevalent, has successfully eliminated discrimination against nonwhites. With the 2014 World Cup, and the 2016 Olympics, I certainly hope Brazil will truly start getting its "civil rights" act together.
Finally, there's a begrudging admittance of a racially segregated country. A 2003 poll showed that more than 90 percent of Brazilians said racism existed here. (Black) Brazilians make up almost 80 percent of the State of Salvador, but they are still controlled by the (White) Brazilian minority, just like majority(Black) South Africans were controlled by the minority (White) South Africans during the Apartheid regime.
Granted, Brazilians are finally discussing race after decades of telling themselves and the rest of the world that the country was free from racism, The (White)Brazilian elite says this is not a racist country, but if you look at whatever social indicator, you'll see exclusion of (Black) Brazilians is endemic.
When will Brazil reverse centuries of pervasive and largely unchallenged racism? Yes, the country has anti-discrimination laws, which are occasionally enforced, but for the most part, remain ineffective in reversing discrimination. From university classrooms to television airwaves, (Black)Brazilians are fighting for what they say is long-denied space in a society that has kept them on the margins.
And Again. Brazil has a long way to go for development, but the real point is, Brazil is developing in the right way. The so called developed nations are now developing (because high debt and less growth) in the wrong way, because of their own greed or incompentence. It's all up to the Brazilians themself like in the video clip. The lady decides for herself to be succesful or not with or without assistance of the government. Brazilians should be proud of that..success is good.
More and more i feel like returning back home to Brazil compared to Sweden the economy is in the up all economic signs are positive and there is somthing there jobbs. If my healthcare and forktruck education is worth there i dont know but if it is i would in deed seriosly consider taking a closer look at least i would be discriminated against like here in Sweden.
marcioquiriano is right... I live in Brazil and I know how it works. Ok I recognize it's getting better but there are lots of corrupt politicians and it's an unfair place, has a lot of social inequality. And Brazil isn't the second, Brazil is the first country with more taxes.
@Junio14111990 Taxes are high in Brazil. but that's not the point. Brazilians must be more active in finding out with "what is happening with the tax money their local, state and federal goverment collects. People in the government work for you, you do not work for them. low taxes on paper sounds great, but not perfect, because than you have a higher chance the government will "borrow" more money for developement (and pet projects). High taxes aren't perfect either, but less worse than borrowing
People create success, not government, though government has a role. Here in the US, they lost it and it's only getting worse. Brazilian banks do not have any exposure to European or US banks that are in trouble. That is another good news. People change the people in the government, so long that happens, people remain in power. Ignore retards like marcio who lives overseas and types BS and check out my blog, more about Brazil
The world is changing for better, including USA, they needed all this "tragedy" to change. The old ppl who r racist is dying and the kids r growning up with a different mind and perspective.
A black Muslim descent is president of the USA, the world must be changing.
@1Husseini Oh stop. I'm not fan of Obozo or bush, DEM or GOP, at all. but Obozo isn't muslim and he isn't pure black at all. the world is changing, for many reasons. Nothing in life stays the same, that includes for all nations. A nation with people that overspend with money it doesn't have + lost it's core values what it was founded on, will collapse and eventually change, good or worse. The old people who r racist? Stop being ridiculous, you don't know them at all, some are racist, some not.
@brazilvideoinfo Não importa se ele é bom ou ruim, ninguém disse nada disso aqui, o que importa é que o povo votou nele. Ou seja, o preconceito diminui consideravelmente, não apenas referente a negros, mas no modo geral de preconceito tudo está mudando, as pessoas estão se vendo mais como pessoas e menos como pretos ou brancos, muçulmanos ou cristãos. Nada na vida é o mesmo, mas nem sempre as mudanças são pra melhor, e foi isso que apontei no comentário...
@1Husseini I do not speak nor understand the Portuguese language well. I have a long way to go to know and understand the Portuguese language. I'm a foreigner from the EU who lives in the US and since 2001 studies Brazil.
@brazilvideoinfo Doesnt matter if hes good or bad, what matters is that US voted for a black guy. Few years ago could u imagine that? Old ppl is really more racist, thats no doubt for everyone, of course thats not all of them and a lot have changed his opinion thiese years, but cuz of their culture and when they were born its easy to be racist. Now ppl r "racist" against racists.
The world always change? Yep, true, but not always for better and that's what I said.
@brazilvideoinfo Continuando... é de conhecimento geral e por estatísticas comprovadas que os mais velhos tem tendência a serem racistas e preconceituosos tanto branco contra negros quanto negros contra brancos, asiáticos, africanos etc. Não por serem "ruins" mas por serem de épocas diferentes/culturas. É ÓBVIO que ainda existirá muito preconceito sempre irá existir vindo de algumas pessoas ou regiões, o ponto nessa questão é que cada vez diminui mais e sendo muito menor é mais fácil de ignorar.
Well, one thing that kept Brazil out of crises of 2008 was that our president sold a lot of optimist. So people started buying a lot of houses and cars! But I don't know if that will go for long!
The biggest problem Brazil faces starts at 15:45 of this video. That bitch has 5 kids, they're loving the welfare program because people like me are paying for her shit, by now she probably has twice as much kids to feed, we are full of it and soon we will demand birth control on those motherfuckers.
However, this cant go for too long, in the long run I cant see Brazil as a developed country, and not because of its income inequality. The reason is bureaucracy, corruption, high taxes and low savings. Nothing can be more dangerous than this combination in the long run. Im a young brazilian, and I'll see in the next 10 or 15 yrs Brazil collapsing...
@MrBuffalogeorge no! don't say that! i'm from argentina and i'm also afraid of that but i think that if we keep on choosing good presidents we will be much bigger than usa that is falling because of the bad politics. and we should not give up until every last person in brazil, argentina, all south america, and finaly all the world is without hunger and without poverty, we can do it ! i believe that we trully can! =)
@xbuster17 Man, I admire your enthusiasm towards South America as a whole. But the truth is different, my friend. US is not falling and they dont have bad politics, we have bad politics. In Brazil, there is no opposition, there is no dialogue. We have more than 10% of inflation in less than a yr ( and we dont have completed even 2/3 of the year ). There is no politician to fight for it. Whereas in States, several politicians are angry because MAYBE taxes will go high... Cheers.
This video is a joke... The interviewees were only politicians or entrepreneurs with great interests in brazilian current situation. The only who gave a "economic" advice was a musician(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). Brazil is a young country, with a young population and low in debt related to GDP... But this is normal for a young country as Brazil... We're lucky because commodities sore in this past decade, our exports rose up and we are enjoying a currency stability for more than 10 yrs...
Rouseff, Humala,Chavez, Santos,etc. :pueden y deben mantener la calidad de sus frutas, verduras, granos, carnes y pescados,etc., evitando usar "geneticamente modificados", evitando que los neocones tomen control de las semillas naturales y las quiten del mercado, empiezen a vender sus semillas geneticas solamente y acaben controlando todo el mercado : las semillas "gm" son para dar alergias, asma, diarrea, problemas estomacales, gorduras y reacciones mentales negativas: para vender medicinas .
@FAITESPASSERLEMOT If you decide trillions... someone will decide billion is enough or million etc and the slippery slope of someone saying we should all be "equal." I think we have been down this road. If you are not starving or have a decent ground to sleep on... they are RICH. Just like you think Trillion is a limit to being rich... there is a difference of opinion about what poverty is. Besides... everyone in Zimbabwe is a "Trillionaires" but I concede that they are "poor."
Export of raw materials is the main driver of Brazils 'economic boom', unless(unlikely due to poor quality population) it develops a technologically advanced manufacturing sector it will forever be 3rd, at best 2nd world. Throughout history poor countries export raw materials and import manufactured good.
The US has been filled with low quality people like Brazilians and hence, is becoming a crappy country like Brazil.
@guest062888 - "The US has been filled with low quality people like Brazilians" ..on what personal experiences do you base such an apparently very racist statement ?
What's with your hate on Brazil? Brazil is a fantastic country. Not too many people know how technologically advanced it is. Brazil has an advanced manufacturing sector. It has the largest PC company in Latin America (Positivo), largest aircraft manufacturer in Latin America (Embraer), 6th largest automobile producer in the world (ahead of India & Russia), and finally, the largest steel making country in Latin America. LONG LIVE THE GREAT NATION OF BRAZIL!!
@FAITESPASSERLEMOT Batista doesn't have any obligation to other people. It is easy to say, "Government should do this or rich people should do that" and feel morally superior. Money is not god nor is government. You can always play the game of "it could be better." If you are not starving to death and have a mat to sleep on... you are rich and should be thankful instead of crying about what you don't have and if you want to lift yourself out of poverty... a little self-reliance works.
Watch "Vice Guide to Liberia" and blacks living in South or North America should thank God that their ancestors were dragged into slavery because the conditions are heck of a lot better for them today living in the Americas than living in Africa now.
@GovPark Dude, shut the fuck up. If anything we should be cursing the people that colonized Africa along with multinational corporations and international banking institutions that exploit the continent today.
@GGLebo23 Your statement gets old because I hear it all the time and become a catch phrase for everything "bad" in Africa. Can you explain to me the difference from Asia and Africa then? Your magic word "colonization" & "international corporation" formula doesn't work out too well in that comparison, right? Where is the murder, rape and Aids capitol of the world? Truth hurts... blacks that live in the west are better off than blacks living in Africa and they should be thanking God.
Some things are true, but has a lot o chance to learn with the error by lessam to the others... and others a lot of cruelt against a race! People! We all going to go to same place whem we died... Go to visit an IML our an Intensive Care Unit, our a Cancer treatment Center and i garantee we understand that this dispute things is a complete lost of time (garbage) Lets be friends and work toguetter to a better world to live. The planett are going dow...
So who is going to dominate the world in next century. Is the WAR will again going to play that role. As it happened in the last two WW - top powers fought to death(German+Japan Vs Britain+Russia) and the third nation(America) rip the benefit. Who will start the coveted WW-next.
(after previous....) Europe is telling , we know we can't do much individually , that's why united and we want our lost glory back, Next century is ours......Middle east is telling we can't become world dominating power or economy buy we can dominate the world by exporting oil and terrorist. (Continued next.......)
Every one is telling the next century will be dominated by them...... China is telling it's time for us, anyone trying to compete with us will be thrashed...... India is telling we are not far behind , next century is ours...... Brazil is telling our economy is booming in an astonishing rate, we will dominate the next century.........America is telling we have ruled the world as super power and we are not going to leave that status without challenge....(Continued next.......)
@subhendu55 go sit somewhere. Brasil is a 3rd world nation.a mere 10% of people are filthy rich and the middle class barely make up another 10% the rest is very much poor and miserable. Single digit growth are not indicative of progress.Brasil is still one of the most corrupt nations on earth.Brasil is the 70th most corrupt country on earth.
@kiDkiDkiD12 brazil is not poor it is that brazil dosent want to share the welth.Take a look at canda they have less money then brazil but becuse the share the money they have a better country for it
@kiDkiDkiD12 That's right! But for some strange reason, especially in America, when ppl distribute wealth for the masses and ppl actually start to do better they label it as communism
I don't mean to offend anyone, but Eike Batista seems to have greed in his eyes and a sense of false optimism. Brazilian standard of living is not at all what the people deserve regardless of their color or economic status. Despite what Batista claims, I still see a country where people are suffering with extreme poverty and really bad racism/discrimination, poor city structure (sewer), drugs, gangs, lack of clean drinking water, etc. I hope things will get better for all Brazilians <3
@jedistar so sad this prejudice of yours against sex workers... you know why Jesus never got married? ...Mary Magdalene. Have more respect for sex workers, you PURITAN PRICK!!
@jedistar No insult taken, My mom always enjoyed sex greatly especialy with strangers, she used to say.. thanks to her, we managed to graduate university, love me mom..
Brazil is growing for a tiny part of the population. Once you are brazilian you'll see the real situation of the country, where you cant wear nice shoes, watch or have a nice car because you are afraid to be robbed. Brazil is the second country in the world witch has more taxes, but the problem is, where those taxes paid go? Not for the population. Why those reporters only interviewed politician? for them everything is perfect, not for the real population. The disaster comes on 2014/16. WAIT...
@marcioquiriano: That "tiny part of population" consists of approx. 80 million people who made their way fram class D & E into class C during the last 8 years. It is by far a question of becoming "rich" but in reality a question of becoming an organized citizen having a salary which last the entire month.
Sure that there still are many things to be done, but by the mere size of the country this will be an effort lasting longer than in other developing countries!
Brasilians of african descent ( understand 54% of the population ) you only see 0,2% of blacks on Brasilian TV, and off the 0,2% damn near all are lighter complected. Brasil is the most racist nation that pretends to be nice
@cannoir No one knows for sure how many brazilians of african descent there are. The total % of black brazilians is estimated to be less than 8% of the entire population. But I agree with the last statement: Brazil is more racist and xenophobic than people there like to admit.
@bittercottoncandy Less than 8%? Seriously! Who came up with that? Considering the largest amount of slaves bought into the new world went to Brazil! more than what went to the U.S.
@Dayonetheone The offical number, if memory serves, is 7,6% of the total population, according to the 2006 census. Many people forget that Brazil had several waves of immigration, predominantly from Europe but also other places. Scores (I'm talking millions) of Portuguese , Italians, Germans, Japanese, etc.. moved there throughout the centuries.
@bittercottoncandy That's true about the large immigration... but 7.6%... c'mon on now... when roughly 5 million blacks were sent to that country and you mean to tell me that the population didn't grow... only about five hundred thousand was sent to the U.S. and the population now is just under 40 million... so that would mean either A: the black Brazilian population was systematically wiped out, or B: was integrated with the other races within the country...
@Dayonetheone Again, these are official numbers (from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics). What happened to the black population that survived is that it got mixed a lot, like in no other place. Unlike say the brits or dutch, the portuguese created a colonial policy which encouraged miscegenation with both blacks and amerindians. Therefore, saying a lot of people in Brazil have black blood is just as valid as saying that a lot of people there have "european" blood.
@bittercottoncandy True! your talking in regards to Americas one drop rule... I just checked the Census... Brazil has the second largest Black population in the world outside of the African Continent... Damn so that must means that Brazil has the largest population in the world considering the growth of immigration that the Census has shown...
@Dayonetheone No. They won't deny their ancestry but they dont feel connected in any way to Africa or its culture. They consider themselves mestizos, and most likely wouldn't like being called black. In many places, mestizos are descriminated against by blacks, although I'm not sure why.
@Dayonetheone Brazil is the world's biggest melting pot regarding races, and it's mixtures, u can check "demographics in Brazil" ... and wether discussing if there are more black people or white people is kinda pointless.. i've been around in Brazil, and if u ask me, i would say that most of Brazilians are simply... mixed. mulatos,caboclos,cafuzos or pardos if they're extremly mixed, and u can't guess anymore if her or his mom or dad was white or black or indian..
@Dayonetheone Portugual and brasil owned most of them slaves with portugal almost emptying a whole nation.If you have been to africa you'll see they kicked whole tribes out of those little african islands and replaced them with slaves they couldn't put in those full boats.Today portugal is oen of the poorest european country and relies of the 103 billions of euros to bail them out.They are almost officially classified as a 3rd world nation.
AMEN to that! I think Rio is more black than 54%. No famous models or television stars are black that I have seen. If you walk the streets its easy to find very beautiful black people that easily surpas the lighter skinned models or tv personalities. Personally, racisim exists mainly in politics, television, top models, job advancement.
@99cachorro my friend the sad thing they injected racism in every valued profession. there is this geo map that shows how Rio was cut in specific parts to curb black people's mobility.It worked very well.think american racism only in brazil it is on steroids and they successfully persuaded most blacks down there that racism doesn't exist but classism ? like really lol! I worked with 5 brazilians, they were parroting that motto as if it had been injected in their veins in their sleep.
You can do alot in a short time if you put effort into it. First female president, green energy, finances improving...yea Brasil can do it. Pay BOPE a little extra to get the streets safer and everyone will be set.....maybe..10 years. Thats a feat considering where Brasil was such a short time ago. Seriously, give the people a little hope and money so the crime will go down and the rest is easy. Boa sorte!
"..troublesome curly locs/locks..." sounds like a distressing perspective. It's great to have choices-I love having choices. It can be a lot of fun! But sad that it sounded like some of the women are at war with their natural hair..Also, the product looks and appears to act like a form of hair relaxer cream? If so, it would not be new at all - not even close to being new (I have friends from Brazil who have - along with their mothers & grandmothers - have used it for many years). :o0
@bittercotton your intelligence is of a high schooler.. Most southern italians look more of mediterrean people. dont u knw the roman empire was greater than any other empire that we kw of history shows it spread north africa and middle east also..alot of slaves alit of race mixing with the italians, as for spain their the decendants of gypies,.moors and arabs take an algerian someone from tunisa or morrocco but not an gulf arab and he'll fit into spain, italy, portugal and certainly greece..
@mofire9999 God, you won't quit, will you? Again, the romans had a vast empire but it certanly was not the largest in size. Then southern italians look just as mediterranean europeans are supposed to look like. Saying spanish descend from gypsies is hilarious; but it will get your arse kicked if you say that in Spain. And if you think a moor is the same as a Portuguese, Spanish or Italian, well, then there's nothing I can really say except try not to skip so many classes...
@mofire9999 In what way was the Roman Empire greater than any other empire in history? Perhaps it was the greatest up until that time, but it has since been superseded many times over.
@CrazyShakaZulu I confess I know nothing of the Han Dynasty so I can not make a comparison. It is a shame that I don't know so much about Chinese History as up until the discovery of the New World and the industrial revolution the Chinese were clearly ahead of their western counterparts in many areas.
Sure my pleasure, The dollar goes pretty far in Brazil, It's almost the perfect vacation spot. Nevertheless Brazilians treat tourist very well. It doesn't matter if your on the beach enjoying the waves and drink, or if your club hopping at night, which is the best part no "ropes" to stand behind in order to get in, and the women, ah, just lovely. Women that you might think are out of your league, nope not in Brazil, hence why I said I feel like a movie star on vacation.
@bittetcottoncandy see that your problem u sit behind your computer googling race in brasil..wat a moron I just told u that race in brasil is far different from race in america... U dont ha e to believe me u can wiki all day long but most lightskined mulattos are co sider white in brasil your white pride is fill with blk and native genes..
@mofire9999 Don't ever call anyone a moron. You're clearly not a very intelligent person nor very versed in this, so you calling others moron is the absolute irony. Race is not different in Brazil, silly. Here's a lesson for you: the English word mulatto comes from the portuguese "mulato", which means mixed. It's the word the portuguese gave the people who had both white and black blood. In Brazil of today, mulattos are called...well mulatos or negros/negras. Hence they are considered black...
IMPOVERISHMENT IS THE KEY COMPONENT OF CONTROL OF A PEOPLE IN ANY NATION IF YOU CONTROL THEIR MONEY SYSTEM WHO CARES WHAT LAWS ARE IN PLACE WITHIN A SO CALLED DEMOCRACY IN AN ECONOMY
@ bittercottoncandy I may be also call blanco in brazil, their concept of race is different from many western countries.. And ask your self wat is european are the turks, abanians, algerians and many eastern european countries as white as they say.. Because I can put an arab from algeria into spain and he fit into the local population, as for the portugese/southern italians if their white also the turks are white period..
@mofire9999 Are you black? Then you'd be called "negro" or "preto". "blanco" is a spanish word; in Brazil they speak Portuguese (the world you're looking for is "branco"). Turks aren't european, algerians are african/berbere and all eastern europeans are white. Saying that the portuguese and southern italians aren't white is incredibly ignorant, which coming from you is quite understandable.
@bittercottoncandy wat do u brasil wat im sayin is that brasil is majority blk with a sizeable population of mulattos also.. Real white brasilians are no more than 20% of the population..if u want to call portugese/spanish/italians "white"..i am not afrocentric or what ever youre going to claim I am. My mother is of spanish decendant, So i'm a half cast dark european and have blk ghana/african genes..So Im not a syber thug, goon like ur claiming I am..i think u just dont kw anything..looser
@mofire9999 The majority of brazilians are white. They are descendents of Portuguese, Spanish, Italians, Germans and Polish. There's a vast black community and a somewhat small native minority. That's it. If you are too stupid to search information just kill yourself because you'd do us all a favour. I imagine you must still be a kid but I cant help saying that you are the biggest imbecile I've ever had the displeasure of exchanging comments with here on you YT.
@bittrtcottoncandy u kw shiit about brazil population of people..stfu u never even travel turn off your porns and see that world, ur nothing but a syber freak obsess with brazil.. Stupit loser my iQ level just drop textin this to u.. 70% of brasilians have some degree of african blood In Them...brazil is control by a hand full of rich elits..and brasil racism is not like america.. Stupit cave animal..
@mofire9999 First of all, if you want to call someone stupid try to be articulate and gramatically correct. Secondly, you have no idea of what you're talking about; there are genetic studies online which clearly show the genetic make-up of Brazil. Notice how asinine your whole argument is: saying that a mullato has black blood is forgetting that it also has european blood. Now carry on being an internet warrior, I might pretend I'm intimidated.
@bittercottoncandy 5million slaves where sent to brazil 5hundred thousand sent to america ..blk in ametica is only 40million how many is I. Brazil u guess thato.e and it not half the population, dick face.. Its like 70% of all brasilians have some kind of blk In them...many livht skinned mulattos arewhite in brazil but not white in ametica so stfu and go watch your internet porn
YOUR PRESIDENTE OR PRIME MINISTER OR LEADERS SELL YOU OFF THE 'CITIZEN' IN EXCHANGE FOR DEBT AND ALL DEBT IS PASSED AROUND SOLD BOUGHT AND USED TO COLLATERALIZE DEBT IN EXCHANGE FOR CREDIT FROM IT'S NATION'S LABOR IF ANY COMMODITIES,CURRENCIES ANY DEBT THAT'S CREATED AGAINST PUBLIC DEBT FOR ANY ONE COUNTRIES ECONOMY IS USED TO BE APART OF THE BIG WORLD ECONOMY!!!
IN THE SCOPE OF ECONOMICS AND CONTROL IT'S NEVER ABOUT THE POOR YOU ARE EXPENDABLE COMMODITY IN WHICH EVERYONE THAT INVEST IN 'YOU' THE PEOPLE COLLECT IF IN FACT YOU EXPIRE DUE TO STARVATION, POVERTY AND ANY KIND OF INFORMAL DISEASES!!!!

Wtf.. Brazil in control by hand full few dark ass europeans..majority of brazilians are not european decendants..thats how u spread your wealth to the rich elits..the blackest country outside africa...this world comin to an end soon..
I've been going to Brazil once a year, for the last 4 years. It's one of the few places on this "Earth" where an ordinary person feels like a movie star.
@abadubie I have been a crime victim more times in Spain than in Brazil. And if you are not in Brazil seeking sexual tourism and you are and educated person, your should be using a condom anyway. So really you have nothing to worry about.
Economic boom? for who? Try being poor and black. Has your life changed? For the few who are making alot of money, it's because they are standing on alot of poor peoples backs. The problem with Rio is too many people came to have a better life and didn't find it. With power outages, clean drinking water problems, NO SEWAGE TREATMENT.. We love our city, but we can't live there anymore.. Oh, I forgot to mention the dengue outbreaks. Economic boom? Any wealth is not trickling down to the poor
@99cachorro its like that all over to the world. to one degree or another. my government spends billions on war but cant pay for health care or education
@99cachorro At the heart and soul of any economy is the judiciary. The case of David Goldman showed the Brazilian judiciary is still the same old corrupt/dysfunctional one. Having said that it is good the economy is booming and that wealth will trickle down to the poor as long as the government pursues progressive social policies and can create a non corrupt justice system.
@missbistouri You won't see them! It really get mad about it. Not even in Baia where 95%are black, it's all light skinned polititians WTF?? I knew black models in Rio that that were so beautiful it would take your breath away. but they never really had a chance because they were TOO DARK!!!
@99cachorro Lol and should it? Don't tell me the poor is sitting on their asses again, oh my! Come to america, you'll love our mixed economic bullshit. You can sit on your ass and earn more money than you would working! Isn't that awesome!
@wingsofliberty437 I am north american, my wife is from Rio. Jacare pague. Now, we can't even afford the tickets to get there. 75% unemployment in Pedre de guaratiba where our little house is. Trust me, as long as the democrats are in charge, this is still the land of plenty (of printed money) And why not print, its already to late to quit!
@99cachorro How should I go about trying to be poor and black like you asked me to do? The economic boom they were talking about was in 1993, as stated at the begining of the video. Voting in our thief of the united states sure didn't do us any better, but, maybe when he is down bowing down and appologizing, maybe, just maybe, then we will get some help from other countries. Or in 2012 we can show up at the poles and let him know what we think of the job he is doing.
@raguila11 You're thinking of another product. The one with formaldehyde does not work on African type hair. And the real issue with the treatment you mean is that after several uses in less than a year, it causes hair breakage.There is more danger of cancer from the water than the hair products. Brazil has very few hair products for blacks.The woman that has made an effective product is now being assaulted by white companies that ignored blacks until the saw their buying power recently.

Oh yeah maybe because of the low salary and the high prices even more for the imported... Or is it because of the they are from Sao Paulo and there are still lots of violence there... Because now Rio more then ever is the " capital of the country", but its ok who cares about Sao Paulo? Instead of beach we have the Tiete, or the polution in the air, or very bad infrastructure...

On the surface, Brazil may look colour blind, but that's an illusion. Do not confuse racial co-existence with racial equality. Brazil has always been, is, and will continue to be, in the forseeable future, a "colour coded" country

(Black) Brazilians have never launched a civil-rights movement like that in the United States nor developed national Black leaders in the mold of Martin Luther King Jr. or South Africa's Nelson Mandela. Also non-existent are Black civic groups with the power of U.S. institutions such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People or financial networks that could spur Black entrepreneurship.
MrHonesttruth7 2 months ago
Brazil needs to redo its history, and work around the premise and the perspective of the (African) Brazilian not only as a slave but as the one who changed Brazilian society, the one who constructed Brazilian society, who constructed the wealth of Brazil. Despite the disparities, debate about race is rare in Brazil., and problems are more felt than spoken about.
MrHonesttruth7 2 months ago
And although Brazilians regularly eat foods and use words that originated in Africa, their history books talk almost exclusively about the deeds of white heroes. The day of acknowledgment is still far off, and Brazil, a country with one of the biggest gaps between rich and poor in the world, is sharply divided between its Whites and non-Whites.

Rio's violence-torn slums, like all the slums scattered around Brazil, in major and minor cities, (Black) Brazilians make up the majority of residents.

MrHonesttruth7 2 months ago
This cynicism is shared by ordinary Brazilians, who live every day with the country's crushing inequalities. But cynicism should give way to action. It is hard to argue that race is not the dividing factor in Brazil and that racial mixing, no matter how prevalent, has successfully eliminated discrimination against nonwhites. With the 2014 World Cup, and the 2016 Olympics, I certainly hope Brazil will truly start getting its "civil rights" act together.
MrHonesttruth7 2 months ago
Finally, there's a begrudging admittance of a racially segregated country. A 2003 poll showed that more than 90 percent of Brazilians said racism existed here. (Black) Brazilians make up almost 80 percent of the State of Salvador, but they are still controlled by the (White) Brazilian minority, just like majority(Black) South Africans were controlled by the minority (White) South Africans during the Apartheid regime.
MrHonesttruth7 2 months ago
Granted, Brazilians are finally discussing race after decades of telling themselves and the rest of the world that the country was free from racism, The (White)Brazilian elite says this is not a racist country, but if you look at whatever social indicator, you'll see exclusion of (Black) Brazilians is endemic.

When will Brazil reverse centuries of pervasive and largely unchallenged racism? Yes, the country has anti-discrimination laws, which are occasionally enforced, but for the most part, remain ineffective in reversing discrimination. From university classrooms to television airwaves, (Black)Brazilians are fighting for what they say is long-denied space in a society that has kept them on the margins.

The so called developed nations are now developing (because high debt and less growth) in the wrong way, because of their own greed or incompentence. It's all up to the Brazilians themself like in the video clip. The lady decides for herself to be succesful or not with or without assistance of the government. Brazilians should be proud of that..success is good.

Brazilians must be more active in finding out with "what is happening with the tax money their local, state and federal goverment collects. People in the government work for you, you do not work for them. low taxes on paper sounds great, but not perfect, because than you have a higher chance the government will "borrow" more money for developement (and pet projects). High taxes aren't perfect either, but less worse than borrowing

Export of raw materials is the main driver of Brazils 'economic boom', unless(unlikely due to poor quality population) it develops a technologically advanced manufacturing sector it will forever be 3rd, at best 2nd world.

Scores (I'm talking millions) of Portuguese , Italians, Germans, Japanese, etc.. moved there throughout the centuries.
bittercottoncandy 8 months ago
@bittercottoncandy That's true about the large immigration... but 7.6%... c'mon on now... when roughly 5 million blacks were sent to that country and you mean to tell me that the population didn't grow... only about five hundred thousand was sent to the U.S. and the population now is just under 40 million... so that would mean either A: the black Brazilian population was systematically wiped out, or B: was integrated with the other races within the country...
Dayonetheone 8 months ago
@Dayonetheone Again, these are official numbers (from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics). What happened to the black population that survived is that it got mixed a lot, like in no other place. Unlike say the brits or dutch, the portuguese created a colonial policy which encouraged miscegenation with both blacks and amerindians. Therefore, saying a lot of people in Brazil have black blood is just as valid as saying that a lot of people there have "european" blood.

"..troublesome curly locs/locks..." sounds like a distressing perspective. It's great to have choices-I love having choices. It can be a lot of fun! But sad that it sounded like some of the women are at war with their natural hair..Also, the product looks and appears to act like a form of hair relaxer cream? If so, it would not be new at all - not even close to being new (I have friends from Brazil who have - along with their mothers & grandmothers - have used it for many years). :o0

@bittercotton your intelligence is of a high schooler.. Most southern italians look more of mediterrean people. dont u knw the roman empire was greater than any other empire that we kw of history shows it spread north africa and middle east also..alot of slaves alit of race mixing with the italians, as for spain their the decendants of gypies,.moors and arabs take an algerian someone from tunisa or morrocco but not an gulf arab and he'll fit into spain, italy, portugal and certainly greece..

@mofire9999 God, you won't quit, will you? Again, the romans had a vast empire but it certanly was not the largest in size. Then southern italians look just as mediterranean europeans are supposed to look like. Saying spanish descend from gypsies is hilarious; but it will get your arse kicked if you say that in Spain. And if you think a moor is the same as a Portuguese, Spanish or Italian, well, then there's nothing I can really say except try not to skip so many classes...

@mofire9999 In what way was the Roman Empire greater than any other empire in history? Perhaps it was the greatest up until that time, but it has since been superseded many times over.

@ornitorrinco01 Whole-heartedly agree. One could say that its contemporary the Han Dynasty in China was greater.

@CrazyShakaZulu I confess I know nothing of the Han Dynasty so I can not make a comparison. It is a shame that I don't know so much about Chinese History as up until the discovery of the New World and the industrial revolution the Chinese were clearly ahead of their western counterparts in many areas.

Sure my pleasure, The dollar goes pretty far in Brazil, It's almost the perfect vacation spot. Nevertheless Brazilians treat tourist very well. It doesn't matter if your on the beach enjoying the waves and drink, or if your club hopping at night, which is the best part no "ropes" to stand behind in order to get in, and the women, ah, just lovely. Women that you might think are out of your league, nope not in Brazil, hence why I said I feel like a movie star on vacation.

@bittetcottoncandy see that your problem u sit behind your computer googling race in brasil..wat a moron I just told u that race in brasil is far different from race in america... U dont ha e to believe me u can wiki all day long but most lightskined mulattos are co sider white in brasil your white pride is fill with blk and native genes..
mofire9999 8 months ago
@mofire9999 Don't ever call anyone a moron. You're clearly not a very intelligent person nor very versed in this, so you calling others moron is the absolute irony. Race is not different in Brazil, silly. Here's a lesson for you: the English word mulatto comes from the portuguese "mulato", which means mixed. It's the word the portuguese gave the people who had both white and black blood. In Brazil of today, mulattos are called...well mulatos or negros/negras. Hence they are considered black...

@ bittercottoncandy I may be also call blanco in brazil, their concept of race is different from many western countries.. And ask your self wat is european are the turks, abanians, algerians and many eastern european countries as white as they say.. Because I can put an arab from algeria into spain and he fit into the local population, as for the portugese/southern italians if their white also the turks are white period..
mofire9999 8 months ago
@mofire9999 Are you black? Then you'd be called "negro" or "preto". "blanco" is a spanish word; in Brazil they speak Portuguese (the world you're looking for is "branco"). Turks aren't european, algerians are african/berbere and all eastern europeans are white. Saying that the portuguese and southern italians aren't white is incredibly ignorant, which coming from you is quite understandable.

@bittercottoncandy wat do u brasil wat im sayin is that brasil is majority blk with a sizeable population of mulattos also.. Real white brasilians are no more than 20% of the population..if u want to call portugese/spanish/italians "white"..i am not afrocentric or what ever youre going to claim I am. My mother is of spanish decendant, So i'm a half cast dark european and have blk ghana/african genes..So Im not a syber thug, goon like ur claiming I am..i think u just dont kw anything..looser
mofire9999 8 months ago
@mofire9999 The majority of brazilians are white. They are descendents of Portuguese, Spanish, Italians, Germans and Polish. There's a vast black community and a somewhat small native minority. That's it. If you are too stupid to search information just kill yourself because you'd do us all a favour. I imagine you must still be a kid but I cant help saying that you are the biggest imbecile I've ever had the displeasure of exchanging comments with here on you YT.

mofire9999 8 months ago
@mofire9999 First of all, if you want to call someone stupid try to be articulate and gramatically correct. Secondly, you have no idea of what you're talking about; there are genetic studies online which clearly show the genetic make-up of Brazil. Notice how asinine your whole argument is: saying that a mullato has black blood is forgetting that it also has european blood. Now carry on being an internet warrior, I might pretend I'm intimidated.

Economic boom? for who? Try being poor and black. Has your life changed? For the few who are making alot of money, it's because they are standing on alot of poor peoples backs. The problem with Rio is too many people came to have a better life and didn't find it. With power outages, clean drinking water problems, NO SEWAGE TREATMENT.. We love our city, but we can't live there anymore.. Oh, I forgot to mention the dengue outbreaks. Economic boom? Any wealth is not trickling down to the poor

@99cachorro At the heart and soul of any economy is the judiciary. The case of David Goldman showed the Brazilian judiciary is still the same old corrupt/dysfunctional one. Having said that it is good the economy is booming and that wealth will trickle down to the poor as long as the government pursues progressive social policies and can create a non corrupt justice system.

@99cachorro How should I go about trying to be poor and black like you asked me to do? The economic boom they were talking about was in 1993, as stated at the begining of the video. Voting in our thief of the united states sure didn't do us any better, but, maybe when he is down bowing down and appologizing, maybe, just maybe, then we will get some help from other countries. Or in 2012 we can show up at the poles and let him know what we think of the job he is doing.

raguila11 8 months ago
@raguila11 You're thinking of another product. The one with formaldehyde does not work on African type hair. And the real issue with the treatment you mean is that after several uses in less than a year, it causes hair breakage.There is more danger of cancer from the water than the hair products. Brazil has very few hair products for blacks.The woman that has made an effective product is now being assaulted by white companies that ignored blacks until the saw their buying power recently.
