The Biblioteca B sica Latino-Americana was originally conceived by Darcy Ribeiro during his years of exile in the 1960s-1970s. The proposal of the collection is thus to promote reflection on Latin American thought, presented in a comprehensive way, through essays and texts by important artists and thinkers. L lia de Almeida Gonzalez, one of the forerunners of black feminism in Brazil, fought and lived for racial and gender equality and traveled the world showing its urgency. In this exclusive volume, we have gathered some of her main essays on Afro-Brazilian culture and the struggle against racial and gender prejudice.
