    Race, Samba & Funk in Brazil: Part 1 feat Caio Almendra (E19)

    This is the story of how a country, which acts in many ways as a bizarre mirror to the United States, engineered its own toxic brand of white supremacy, and sparked a centuries-long anti-racist struggle fundamentally different from the American experience. This is the story of fascism, racial oppression, and anti-racist resistance in our cousin to the south: Brazil. Your hosts are Julian Feeld and Caio Almendra.
