Quilombo Maranhao_it2052.jpg
Two toothless men hug each other, friendship and happiness, Itamatatiua Quilombo, Alcântara, Maranhão, 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.
