Abstract:
In 2022 a movement of assassins of the Law of Quotas wants to kill Brazil. It is the Tara of Pontius Pilate, of Judas. It is the twist of the finger and the pocket like the one that pointed to the enslaved black, indigenous in the port of the slaves, in Valongo. They are the hideous forces in the history of Brazil: they want to judge, condemn to death, kill, drink the pleasure of the blood of death of the Law of Quotas. That's not news. The article analyzes the attempt against the President of Brazil, which took place in Rio de Janeiro in 1897. The 19th century was the time for the construction of National States in Latin America, as in Peru and Brazil. Who is part of the nation and who is left out of full citizenship? How does this relate to notions of civilization and barbarism? Are there legacies of this in the debate on the Law of Quotas for access to university in Brazil in the 21st century? The hypothesis of the article is that yes, because it revolves old beliefs about who is part of the nation and who is not. The continuity of the Quota Law in 2022 (Law 12,711/12), the centenary of Brazil's independence, a law of parliament, depends on the nation welcoming blacks, indigenous peoples, public school students at the university as equal parts of Brazil, aiming at the present of the 21st and the future, not the mirrors of the past. However, in the air of Brazil in the 2020s, a climate of attack appears in the air in which civilization as a ghost tries to rename barbarism. The article presents the argument of the real risk of a stab at the Quota Law in Brazil, the risk of a political crime of neobranqueamento, a crime against democracy, against the integration of the nation, against full citizenship, which cloud the future of children, teenagers, entire families and fuels hatred and epistemicide.
