“All Brazilians have the impression that the country simply has no practical sense. It is like a father with a good heart and an honest reputation whom we respect but who can't make money or hold a steady job, who wastes great opportunities, gets drunk, and lands in trouble.”
― Tropical Truth: A Story of Music and Revolution in Brazil
― Tropical Truth: A Story of Music and Revolution in Brazil
“A sociedade setecentista-oitocentista baiana não se dividia drasticamente entre dois extremos nítidos e polarizados: o dos senhores e o dos escravos. Este dualismo esquemático não encontra correspondência factual naquele mundo. Entre os dois extremos da hierarquia ou escala social, circulava uma população livre consideravelmente numerosa–faixa intermediária formada em grande parte por uma gente mestiça. Mais do que isso: havia escravos e ex-escravos que eram proprietários de escravos. Negros e negras escravistas. A primeira coisa que ex-escravos faziam, depois de ter a sua carta de alforria, era comprar para si um ou mais escravos, usando-os com os mesmos propósitos dos senhores brancos: tê-los a seu serviço pessoal e empregá-los para obter lucros, fosse no comércio ou na prostituição. Mas não só escravos: investiam igualmente em bens móveis e imóveis.”
