The most significant change in Brazil's racial politics over the past three decades has been the Black Movement. Since the collapse of the myth there is no longer a hemegomic racial narrative in Brazil. The country's racial narrative is characterized by conflict. That also is true of Afro-Brazilian narratives which are expressed by a vast array of Black organizations. This essay suggests that in order to maintain the initiative in the country's racial narrative and practice, Afro-Brazilians must keep their political efforts embedded in the Black social movement
