Around 56% of Brazilians identify as Black—the largest population of African descent outside of Africa—yet Black people make up just 18% of congress, 4.7% of executives in Brazil's 500 largest companies, 75% of murder victims and 75% of those killed by police.

40% of Brazilians identify as mixed race and 16% identify as black put Brazilian media put them in the same category to inflate the black population in Brazil. But both of them have a low representation.

No I haven't. I plan to go this year because she is getting married. What also intrigued me about Brazil was how extremely multiracial and diverse it is. Brazil is a country that regardless of your looks, you can be a Brazilian.

From Japanese, Asians, blonde eyes Europeans and Africans as black as Akon, all exist within Brazil. And it's so damn huge. One can fly from one part of the country to the other for about six hours and still be in Brazil. As a comparison, it takes around same that time to fly from London to Lagos.

I used to think Nigeria was big when I was small lol, travelling to the North from Lagos and seeing all those unending view of empty lands with no inhabitant in sight, while being on the road for more than one day. But in Brazil, only the Amazon rainforest is bigger than Nigeria seven times. If not for corruption in politics, Brazil is just one of the countries that is heaven on earth. And its warm, what's more can one ask for ?

This is true. BUT let’s not pretend that Brazil is a very diverse nation. The vast majority of Brazilians are black/African descendants (of various ethnic origins of course). The mixed and nonblack populations exist and have contribute a lot to Brazil but are few in number. That's just a fact.
