“As rubber soldiers, brought the northeastern part of Brazil to the Amazon, leaving a significant legacy for the region,” said the deputy, adding that the miscegenation of the Northeast with mestizo of Amazon “was born the new Amazonian caboclo.” “Finally, the caboclo is not Indian (pre-Columbian); the caboclo is not white (European); the caboclo is not black (African), the caboclo is not yellow (Asian); the caboclo is a Mestizo. The caboclo is Amazonian” emphasized the parliamentarian.
During the special session, the president of the Mestizo Nation Movement, Helda Castro challenged the Racial Equality Statute that is to be sanctioned by President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. She points out flaws in the drafting of the document. “There is discrimination in relation to the Mestizo, because we are not blacks, are even shifting cultivators,” he argues.
