This collection of articles focuses on the Afro-Brazilian culture of the state of Bahia in northeastern Brazil and its linkage to politics during the 19th century up until modern times. Central issues facing Afro-Brazilians are examined, including their relationship with the State.
The essays in this book constitute an analytic survey of the last two centuries of Afro-Bahian history, with a focus squarely on the difficult relationship between Afro- and Euro-Bahia and on the continual Afro-Bahian struggle to create a meaningful culture in an environment either hostile or suffocating in its ability to absorb elements of Afro-Bahian culture.
