Now theyre often protests in brazil over the killing of a black man outside a supermarket. Demonstrators are calling for a boycott of the cough or supermarket chain, and thats after a video showing 2 reportedly White Security guards repeatedly hitting a 40 year old man in the face before his death. One guard was seen milling on the victims back. It happened on the eve of black consciousness day in brazil. The security guards who have both been locally reported as being whites have been detained and are being investigated for homicides. Lets face addison murari, hes a law professor and has been extensively on institutional racism in brazil. He joins us now from sao paolo adelson. I understand one of these guards is also an off Duty Police Officer and you work on issues of racism. But as a black man in brazil yourself, can i ask if youre surprised that this happened . No, i am an arms races is a structural problem. In brazil, it happens every day. Racial violence is an endemic problem in that country. The number of People Killed by that resilient bully is, is almost the same of the them flopsy, the wars around the word. So this is not a surprise, an event at all. This is that this is how brazilian bullies, private and Public Institutions treat the black people in brazil on a daily basis. And the timing of this as well just ahead of black consciousness day. There, unsurprisingly, some protests are showing some, some pictures of those. And i see some even set fire to a car for in sao paolo way you are. Some are referring to this as brazils george floyd moment. Do you think so . It is difficult to say because of course there have been a lot of protests they are necessary because of this. There are police good Police Violence there in that they dont really, but i am not. Is that the sure there is particular incident this fire . Its actually something imposed by the protests are over by the police itself, in an attempt to immobilize to this while it by and criminalize social movement, which is also an enormous problem. In that though, i see the Vice President has released a statement denying that racism even exists in brazil. But as youre saying, theres a history colonialism, slavery. And last year i was looking at some of the numbers, more than 75 percent of the People Killed by police were black. How deeply ingrained are these views . Well, rinses in brazil is a structural problem. So black people discrimination in aid, in every aspect in every day, management of social life and employment in the medical treatment. For instance, resilience usually receive less than half of the salary of a white man. Black women usually receive 6, the percent or less than the salary of black men. Black women are the main victims of violence. So this is the problem. Its where as in beginning in every single aspect of brazilian social life, adelson, i know this is by the so i was going to tell you here about the if you can travesty that we also saw during this pandemic about heavy handed policing that took place especially during raids in, for velez on, predominantly black communities has this moment in time, this pandemic exacerbated these tensions. Oh, absolutely, absolutely. Because one of the consequences were those that live there. Most of the be the 1st people who lost their jobs were essentially people. And, and because of inequality, there is all this sort of the problems of inequality and bar, so violence more people trying to find the ways to survive. And the last 2 years ago we lacked the right. We were not as the president and all of them were sue bullied at the farm bays on racial violence. So the current darkness of this, they thought me it is and they have to say it several times. They are the bullies who will have a license shaquille, also known as a city of so of racial violence in brazil. Well, given the history here that youre a fan too as well, how do you begin addressing some of these issues, especially under this government . Not just in terms of states but across the country. Well, as you will mention, as youve just mentioned, there have been this is a huge problem in brazil, brazil. Right. President. But things have changed in brazil, the bully, the brazilian, both relations, and especially the black population. Its much more a mobilize, so people are reacting to the violence in the last local elections. How the brazilian people specially brazilian black people are mobilized around as well, to not raise. So there are, there were a lot of black women, a lot of black males eligibility be more a part of belong to there will be the community. A lot of people who are elected, and its certainly this is certainly a reaction against the populists.
