Interesting article.....even more interesting to see how it wil play out. In a country like Brazil, what would be the cut-off to classify someone as black? I wonder how do they classify someone as black now, since according to their stats, there are only 11 million blacks in Brazil but 76 million "mixed".

Anyway, if they do implement some type of US-styled "affirmative action" I wonder if many who are "mixed" will now move to "black" in order to utilize some of the programs? Since just like in the US, you do not have to be 100% african in nature to be classified as "black".
