Sumario: Although the Aurea Law ended slavery exactly 132 years ago, it failed to resolve the situation of discrimination and material poverty of the black population. Brazilian society has engendered a veiled or invisible racism in its social relations that leads to social asymmetries, differences in the treatment given at institutions, and discrepancies in the access to opportunities, goods, and services between whites and blacks. Structural racism in Brazil is responsible for a permanent loss on the emancipation and full development of black population. Affirmative actions are an appropriate instrument to face the difficult and indomitable issue of racial inequality between whites and blacks in Brazil, as they expose and denounce the negative symbolic legacy of the belief in “racial democracy,” the idea of the absence of racism, and the social posture of “tropical indolence.” Furthermore, affirmative actions also enable this country to build a genuinely inclusive and democratic society.
