Summer 2020 Study Abroad

"Inequality & Activism in Brazil"

LEARN MORE:

ANTH 442/SOC 352/AFRAS 300/GENS 450 (3 units)Learning will take place both inside and outside the classroom as we explore the

Africana experience in Brazil. Nearly 40% of African captives during the

centuries long European slave trade were destined for Brazil. Today, Brazil has

the largest population of African people outside of Africa. The largest

concentration of African Brazilians live in the state of Bahia. We will also

examine the different forms of inequality in Brazil, learning theoretical

approaches to social and economic disparity, meeting with local activists at

grassroots NGOs, and exploring what might be done to alleviate poverty, as well

as other forms of social injustice worldwide.
