In this episode we speak with Latin Americanist and transatlantic slavery scholar Dr. Mary Hicks about the history of free and enslaved people of African descent in Brazil. This discussion dives deeply into the perceived reality of African people in Brazil and their unique journey to preserve their Africanness and their identities while carving out meta-realities of freedom and liberation in a racially oppressive and colonialistic environment. From African mariners and traders to enslaved Africans in the South American continent, we discuss the complicated histories and ideas of the Portuguese imperial project. The history is complicated - morally and ethically and can be a bit messy but is without question enlightening and ultimately inspiring! Come along for this mental journey into the past with Leading By History!
