Summary:On the 130th anniversary of the abolition of slavery (1888), the Afro Brazil Museum exhibition highlights the production of 19th and 20th century black artists and personalities, as well as Afro-Atlantic art from Cuba and Haiti, through paintings, photographs, lithographs, sculptures and drawings that highlight and value the fundamental African and Afro-Brazilian contribution in the construction of the country. "Isso é coisa de preto" (This is a Black thing) is a jargon, a prejudiced and racist national term, often used to discriminate against being Afro-Brazilian. Reframing such terminology, with the aim of emphasizing that 'black thing' is to have excellence in the arts, sciences, sports, medicine and other relevant fields of society, are some of the objectives of the exhibition, such as doctor Juliano Moreira, poet Luiz Gama, writer Manuel Querino, singer Elza Soares, editor Francisco Paula Brito, musicians Dorival Caymmi, João do Vale, Cartola, Milton Nascimento, Luiz Melodia, Jamelão, Pixinguinha, Paulinho da Viola and Itamar Assumpção, the dancer Mercedes Baptista, the abolitionist José do Patrocínio, actress Ruth de Souza, star soccer player Pelé, Madame Satã, among other other black personalities represented in this event
