Last Saturday, May 10th, activists from the Black Socialist Movement made a manifesto against the Statute of Racial Equality, a bill by black senator Paulo Paim (PT-RS), currently underway in the Chamber of Deputies.
This project determines, among other things, the mandatory hiring of black people by companies that provide services to public bodies. A letter emerged from a debate of 104 people that will explain to parliamentarians why the BLACK Socialist Movement does not agree with the creation of new quotas for Afro-descendants.
Currently, 22 federal universities reserve places in entrance Special Data exams for black students. The discussion that used to be just about quotas in education has become much bigger. The senator proposes numerous types of “quotas” to insert black people into society once and for all.
The curious thing is to see that, in a way, even black people feel discriminated against in this proposal that imposes rules of conduct in the community so that the black population is fully inserted into the Brazilian social context. Would it be some way to accentuate the differences or resolve them once and for all?
Documentation : the color/race and gender of citizens must appear in all documents used by the SUS (Unified Health System) and administrative records of public and private companies. The MEC (Ministry of Education) will be authorized to do the same and collect this data through a school census.
Education : the subject “General History of Africa and Black People in Brazil” will be part of the mandatory curriculum for primary and secondary education. Quotas will be mandatory in student loan programs and public universities.
Work : Companies will no longer be able to require photographs on resumes. All of them will have to hire black people and a minimum of 20% of black people in important positions in public administration becomes mandatory. Private companies may have tax incentives if they have more than 20% of their employees made up of Afro-descendants.
