Activism, Culture and Education for Citizenship in Brazil an the U.S. (2024-2025)
About this project
Building on the work of previous teams, this project will bring together scholars, artists and students from Duke, North Carolina Central University (NCCU), Instituto Enraizados, and the Federal Rural University in Rio de Janeiro to investigate key forms of activism and cultural organizing ranging from Black, women’s and LGBTQ+ movements to the memorialization of slavery and local religious and musical expression. Additionally, this project team will examine elections and urban and labor struggles, especially among public school teachers.
