Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics, and music. It was practised by enslaved Africans in Brazil at the beginning of the 16th century. Capoeira originated as a product of the Angolan tradition of "Engolo" but was used as a method of survival known to slaves.

It was a tool with which an escaped slave, completely unequipped, could survive in the hostile, unknown land and face the hunt of the capitães-do-mato, the armed and mounted colonial agents who were charged with finding and capturing escapees.

Though tolerated until the 1800s, this quickly became criminalised due to its association with being African, as well as a threat to the current ruling regime. By the 1920s, capoeira repression had declined, and some physical educators and martial artists started to incorporate capoeira as either a fighting style or a gymnastic method

This is a photo of institutional racism. The confusion on this boy’s face is the result of Institutional Racism. He chooses the White doll over the Black doll every time to a host of questions that pointed out the White doll being more acceptable and more pretty in life than the Black doll, except for ugliness and bad things. Ugliness and bad things were the only times when the Black children, in this experiment, pointed at the Black doll.
