“pesquisa do Datafolha realizada em 1995, que mostrou que 89% dos brasileiros admitiam existir preconceito de cor no Brasil, mas 90% se identificavam como não racistas.”
Djamila Ribeiro, Pequeno Manual Antirracista

Yuval Noah Harari
“But fiction has enabled us not merely to imagine things, but to do so collectively. We can weave common myths such as the biblical creation story, the Dreamtime myths of Aboriginal Australians, and the nationalist myths of modern states. Such myths give Sapiens the unprecedented ability to cooperate flexibly in large numbers. Ants and bees can also work together in huge numbers, but they do so in a very rigid manner and only with close relatives. Wolves and chimpanzees cooperate far more flexibly than ants, but they can do so only with small numbers of other individuals that they know intimately. Sapiens can cooperate in extremely flexible ways with countless numbers of strangers. That’s why Sapiens rule the world, whereas ants eat our leftovers and chimps are locked up in zoos and research laboratories.”

“Rather, to change a habit, you must keep the old cue, and deliver the old reward, but insert a new routine. That’s the rule: If you use the same cue, and provide the same reward, you can shift the routine and change the habit. Almost any behavior can be transformed if the cue and reward stay the same. The”

“Devemos aprender com a história do feminismo negro, que nos ensina a importância de nomear as opressões, já que não podemos combater o que não tem nome. Dessa forma, reconhecer o racismo é a melhor forma de combatê-lo. Não tenha medo das palavras “branco”, “negro”, “racismo”, “racista”. Dizer que determinada atitude foi racista é apenas uma forma de caracterizá-la e definir seu sentido e suas implicações. A palavra não pode ser um tabu,”
Djamila Ribeiro, Pequeno Manual Antirracista

Yuval Noah Harari
“The slave trade was not controlled by any state or government. It was a purely economic enterprise, organised and financed by the free market according to the laws of supply and demand. Private slave-trading companies sold shares on the Amsterdam, London and Paris stock exchanges. Middle-class Europeans looking for a good investment bought these shares. Relying on this money, the companies bought ships, hired sailors and soldiers, purchased slaves in Africa, and transported them to America. There they sold the slaves to the plantation owners, using the proceeds to purchase plantation products such as sugar, cocoa, coffee, tobacco, cotton and rum.”
