George W Bush could barely string two sentences together without error. He reportedly visited Brazil on an official tour, and asked their president ''You have blacks here too?''

Really? It's Hard To Believe. Americans think that all Brazilians are black.

This is similar to the columbine high school massacre of 1999, where two American teenagers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold killed their fellow students before taking their own lives.

Look like mental illness. He look like a psychopath

Early Africans are probably the first to inhabit Brazil, Africans colonised the Americas long before the birth of Christopher Colombus.

The influence of African culture is evident even in the ways of the Red Indians, formerly thought to be the first settlers in that region; the culture and traditions of these group is at times identical to that of some mainland African.

On closer examination, produced conclusive evidence to suggest that these distinct cultural traits are carried over from the first settlers in the Americas; Africans.

WTF?? Lol you're crazy. Brazilians are originally Native Americans. Native Americans come from Asia. All latin Americans are originally Native Americans. Afrocentric people are crazy.

Brazil, but that there’s a large Yoruba presence in Brazil that Nigerians and the Nigerian government suppose show much more interest.

Really? I never heard of it. Salvador, in the state of Bahia is a city of great Yoruba / Nago heritage located in northeastern Brazil. Candomble and Umbanda were also introduced by the African cultures. Bahia is one of the 27 states of Brazil.

Everyday Examples of Exaggeration
- The Tapioca Couscous also known as White Couscous or Bahia Couscous, is one of many versions of the North African couscous, brought to Brazil by Portuguese colonizers. This recipe is very popular in the North and Northeast regions, especially in Bahia.- Couscous is a Maghrebi dish of small steamed balls of crushed durum wheat semolina ( in brazilian portuguese "cuzcuz" ).

African Brazilian version
" Reflecting the diverse heritage of Brazil, tapioca couscous is an African slave recipe". WTF?? Tapioca originating in North and Northeast Brazil, with indigenous origin. Cuzcuz is a maghrebi dish.
African Brazilian version
" The origin of pão de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) is unclear, but it seems likely that the recipe originated from African slaves who made the bread with cassava root." - Fake news. Colombian-inspired food.

- Candomblé is an Afro-Brazilian religion that has a strong presence in Brazil as a religious institution -
Sooooo fake. 3 million people; 1,5% of Brazil Population. Candomblé is a sacrificial religion that uses animals for its liturgical purposes. Traditional African customs Condemned by Brazilians.

- The state of Bahia is the centre of Candomble in Brazil.
Catholicism remains the predominant religion in Bahia. Candomblé is only 2 - 3% of the population

Yet you to show a lack of understanding the deep connection much of the population of Brazil have with our great continent.

During the crusades and Trans- Atlantic campaigns many end up in different parts of the Globe; Brazil bring a typical example.

Therefore, it is all part of the African narative. Know thy self; be one with the African God(s).


The African Dream!

Be apart of the African narative; a generational change of thinking; Let us re-instate the glory days of African positive influence on the rest of the world.


The time has come to put and end to the false narrative of doom and gloom.

Now we look into the distant with great anticipation that one day Africans will launch a consented effort to restore Africa’s glory days.

I hope there is no one reading these text with a dollop of doubt.

It’s inevitable that a generation of Africans will solve all our worries; unite all of Africa towards a common goal, but many people, including me, prefer that generation to be theirs.

African influence in Brazil is highly exaggerated. Many times specially abroad is exaggerated, either to make us exotic or used for political reasons. The majority of Brazilians don't like carnival, samba, capoeira etc... Not all Brazilians are black or African descent, not all black Brazilians are " Yoruba. Most of the slaves in Brazil were brought from the Bantu regions of the Atlantic coast of Africa where today Congo and Angola are located, and also from Mozambique.

It’s really up to Yoruba in Brazil to take further steps to attain official language status.
" WTF?? Brazil is not a African country. Brazil is home to quite a diversity of racial and ethnic groups. White, Asian, Black, Arab, japanese etc

Fake news again. Black brazilians only speak portuguese.

Yesterday, reports circulated in Nigerian media that Brazil had adopted Yoruba as an official foreign language. We reported on it suggesting it was accurate (see below), but with more digging we've found that the story doesn't quite add up. As we probed further and searched the news for supplemental content, we received confirmation from Rafael Baldo Guimaraes, from the Brazilian Ministry of Culture that the story is "fake news." According to Brazil's Minister of Culture, Dr. Sérgio Sá Leitão's, schedule, he was not in attendance at the seminar mentioned in Nigerian news sites such as The Nigerian Voice and The Poise Nigeria, which appeared to show photographs from the event. We will continue to keep you updated on the story as we learn more. You can read on for the original story.

Nah, blacks and mixed are the majority, not Caucasians. Do your findings, you'll realise it.

Many are mixed amerindians with Europeans. Mestizos are black? That doesn't make sense.

Lol fake news. Yorubá is a national patrimony of Brazil not a official language. People don't translate portuguese.
Brazilian portuguese
Agora é patrimônio imaterial do Estado do Rio.
patrimônio = patrimony of Rio de Janeiro State
