    Religious Racism in Brazil: We Have to Talk About It!

    Racism naturalizes oppression against black people in all areas of their lives, including their spirituality and faith. Since colonial times, systematic violence has taken place against people of Afro-Brazilian religions, such as Umbanda and Candomblé. In Brazil, sacred entities of Afro-Brazilian religions are primary victims of racist religious intolerance. Have you ever wondered why it's always the same black spirit entities that are manifesting and being cast out in services in the name of Jesus—a white Jesus with blue eyes?
