Slavery Unseen: Sex, Power, and Violence in Brazilian History - Latin America Otherwise
Lamonte Aidoo
Lamonte Aidoo upends dominant narratives of Brazilian national identity by showing how the myth of racial democracy is based on interracial and same-sex sexual violence between slave owners and their slaves that operated as a mechanism of perpetuating slavery and heteronormative white patriarchy.
