An important yet overlooked event in Brazilian History:

It is generally well-known that the first martyrs to lay down their lives for the abolition of slavery were the brave freedom fighters of the Haitian Revolution led by Toussaint l’Overture in 1791.

It is also generally well-known that the white Presbyterian minister, Elijah Parish Lovejoy was the first martyr to sacrifice his life for the abolishment of slavery in the United States in 1837.

However, it is not generally known that in Brazil, four men, Luiz Gonzaga, João de Deus, Lucas Dantas, and Manuel Faustino were sent to the gallows for their participation in an insurrection to free the slaves and bring democracy to Brazil in 1798.

This event constitutes an important, yet overlooked link in the history of the fight for freedom and democracy, the abolishment of slavery, and Brazilian history.

On March 28 died in an automobile accident Professor John Manuel Monteiro, of the State University of Campinas (Unicamp), Brazil. Born in St. Paul, USA, Professor Monteiro had a PHD in Latin American history in the University of Chicago, taught at the University of North Carolina (USA) and Unesp. He also was researcher of Cebrap (Brazilian Center for Analysis and Planning), and for several years taught anthropology at Unicamp. He was a pioneer and biggest supporter of indigenous history studies in Brazil and published the classic book 'Negros da terra' in 1994. His death is an immeasurable loss to the fields of history and anthropology.

Olá, sou paulista, faço doutorado na UNICAMP e pesquiso o neonazismo na rede.
Boas pesquisas e discussões a todos.

Olá. Sou antropóloga austríaca e associada e UFPA em Belém. Meus interesses sao a antropologia de saúde, genero, migracao entre outros. Fico contente em encontrar pessoas do mundo inteiro que se interessam pela antropologia brasileira porque acho Brasil é um país maravilhoso para antropólogos - onde tem muito para pesquisar, tanto para os de dentro quanto para os de fora, e a noss profissao é respeitada, muito mais do que na Austria.
Será um prazer discutir aqui.

Of course, I speak English to discuss if this is more adequate here.

Hi Folks! I agree with Fausto! We must keep in our mind ‘The Philosophy of OAC and Language Barrier”. All the languages have own wonderful characteristics and dignity, people have right to maintain their identity and dignity. But I think, we are here to share knowledge and experience. I am from Nepal, and have grave desire to learn more from Brazil and India than others but my Portuguese is in infancy. Despite the fact that I know more than ten languages, here the condition does not favor.

Boa tarde Barbara. Primeiro, desde dia 11 de setembro, é muito difícil de entrar os EUA. Claro, eu fui em Brasil desde antes da eleição. Recentemente, um amigo Americano me visitou e eu e-mail a minha família freqüentemente. Há dois lados à história. Primeiro, é que Obama não fez bom em algumas das suas promessas e o outro é que precisa mais tempo para seus programas trabalhar. Eu esperaria mais tempo para ver o que acontece...tchau.

Acho que progredimos quando nos apresentamos... então vai lá minha mini-apresentação. Batalho para concluir meu mestrado na UNICAMP (o que deve acontecer em março). Estudo arquivos alemães on-line, mais precisamente o debate em torno da definição da língua nacional judaica nos periódicos sionistas alemães do início do XX. Acredito que este seja um tema exótico na 'antropologia brasileira' (aqui entendida como aquela que é levada a cabo no país).

Sabe o que é curioso, Neil?, quando o Obama foi eleito eu fiquei com uma coceira de ir fazer algo parecido nos EUA.. É claro que não sei se as conclusões seriam parecidas.
