The concept of aesthetics describes what people of certain cultures tend to consider to be popular or in good taste (Wild & Wild, 2014). To this extent, despite being mostly unified by a single language, Brazil represents such a diverse culture that regional aesthetic variances could almost seem like they were different countries altogether (Castano, Goossens, Terlouw, and Vliet, n.d.). According to Encyclopedia Britannica, of all the cultures that make up the Brazilian way of life, the Portuguese culture is the dominant influence and provides the main language, religion, and many customs. Indigenous Indians and African influences are also apparent in some forms, especially in certain parts of the country.

Afro Brazilians have had to deal with centuries of oppression. During these times, Afro-Brazilians have had to deal with various methods, and strategies designed to keep entire communities oppressed. Many of these methods have had effects so profound, they are still affecting many Brazilians till this day. Political oppression is one of the oldest methods known to man, along with unleashing a forceful police force mimicking military forces. Authoritarian rule also played a major role in the shaping of the country. Furthermore, an inept biased justice system will fail those who need protections, and justice the most. These four key modes will be objectively examined, as well as the efficacy of each of these repressive strategies, and the impact that they have had or still have in the Afro-Brazilian communities.

The Portuguese Empire lasted over six centuries, beginning in 1415, with the conquest of Ceuta, a Moroccan port on the straits of Gibraltar, and one of Europe’s first attempt at colonization in Africa. This move was orchestrated by Prince Henry, who was known as ‘the Navigator’. It was because of Prince Henry that Portugal became an imperialist country, he studied navigation, and made improvements on inventions like the astrolabe and compass, his goal was to make Portugal the most powerful sea power in the world. Prince Henry sponsored many naval explorers such as Bartolomeu Dias (who rounded the tip of Cape Hope in 1488) and Vasco de Gama. Three years after Ceuta, a group of uninhabited islands were found off the coast of Portugal, they were named the Madeiras, and almost immediately people began to settle there, they as well as the Azores islands (another set of uninhabited islands found in 1445) remain an autonomous part of Portugal today.

For centuries, Venezuela and Colombia have been home to the unique genre of traditional music called joropo that was believed to have originated in the 18th century within rural settings. Characterized by its African, European and indigenous influences, the term joropo was first used to describe dances and festive events such as parties, family reunions and picnics. Joropo spread across Venezuela and Colombia thus various regions adopted a slightly different style of joropo. Joropo llanero, for example,comes from the Orinoco plains of Colombia and western Venezuela and has grown to have worldwide recognition. Formally identified as Fandango, Joropo llanero has grown to become a genre associated with traditional dancing/singing, the country’s rich history and cultural pride.

As a child develops into an adult there are critical developmental steps that are necessary for a complete and successful transition. The physical transition is the most obvious change, but underneath the thick skin and amongst the complex systems, exists another layer of transitions. Ideas, rationales, ideologies and beliefs all dwell within this layer of each being. It could be said that a nation can also fit this transitional framework. A nation grows in both size (wealth, population, power), and in ideological maturity (emancipation of slaves, civil rights, women’s rights…etc). This constant evolution of ideas and size is the foundation of a successful government. Without change and
