Rostos negros, corpos brancos
O que está por trás do blackface? Pintar a cara de preto é uma forma de esconder ou de desmascarar o racismo que ordenou e ainda ordena o Brasil? Essas são perguntas que atravessam o trabalho da historiadora Lissa Passos. Por meio de um estudo acurado da peça Seccos e Molhados, um sucesso do Teatro de Revista do Rio de Janeiro de 1924, a autora tece uma intricada análise na qual as peripécias vividas pelas personagens nos convidam a mergulhar nas dinâmicas de uma sociedade em que o racismo era travestido de piada, e os rostos brancos eram pintados de preto. Uma pesquisa de fôlego que faz do teatro um espelho do Brasil de então.

A nova aurora
Em 17 de novembro de 1889, ocorreu no Maranhão, na cidade de São Luís, um grande protesto popular, majoritariamente de negros, contra o golpe militar que dois dias antes estabelecera a República no Brasil. Os manifestantes acreditavam que o objetivo era destituí-los dos direitos conquistados com a Abolição, cerca de um ano e meio antes, e reescravizar a gente de cor. Quando tentaram invadir e depredar um jornal republicano, uma tropa destacada para proteger o edifício realizou uma descarga de fuzil e, de acordo com números oficiais, matou quatro pessoas e deixou inúmeros feridos. O episódio é conhecido como o Massacre de 17 de Novembro e, junto com outros incidentes envolvendo vi...

Blacks & Whites in São Paulo, Brazil, 1888-1988
In Buried Indians, Laurie Hovell McMillin presents the struggle of her hometown, Trempealeau, Wisconsin, to determine whether platform mounds atop Trempealeau Mountain constitute authentic Indian mounds. This dispute, as McMillin subtly demonstrates, reveals much about the attitude and interaction - past and present - between the white and Indian inhabitants of this Midwestern town. McMillin's account, rich in detail and sensitive to current political issues of American Indian interactions with the dominant European American culture, locates two opposing views: one that denies a Native American presence outright and one that asserts its long history and ruthless destruction. The highly reflective oral histories McMillin includes turn Buried Indians into an accessible, readable portrait of a uniquely American culture clash and a dramatic narrative grounded in people's genuine perceptions of what the platform mounds mean.

Violence and Desire in Brazilian Lesbian Relationships
In Violence and Desire in Brazilian Lesbian Relationships, Allen examines the lives of Brazilian women in same-sex relationships. This examination contributes to interdisciplinary discussions of female same-sex sexuality, violence, race, and citizenship. Using fifteen months of ethnographic fieldwork, primarily with Afro-Brazilian women in the city of Salvador da Bahia, Allen argues that Brazilian lesbian women reject Brazilian cultural norms that encourage male domination and female submission through their engagement in romantic relationships with each other. At the same time Allen claims lesbian women also reproduce Brazilian cultural ideals that associate passion, intensity, and power with physical dominance through their engagement in infidelity and intimate partner violence. The book demonstrates that lesbian women are nonetheless marginalized as Brazilian citizens through widespread social and political invisibility despite these apparent displays of masculinized power.
