black boy portrait_it2072.jpg
Portrait of a black boy living in a Quilombo at Alcântara, Maranhão State, Brazil. A quilombo is a Brazilian hinterland settlement founded by people of African origin. Most of the inhabitants of quilombos were escaped former slaves and, in some cases, a minority of marginalised non-slave Brazilians that faced oppression during colonization.
