Culture in Salvador. Salvador is the capital of Bahia, the heart of Afro-Brazilian culture, home of such Brazilian musical groups as Olodum and Ilê Aiyê and the birthplace of Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso, among many other artists. Salvador has the largest street carnival in Brazil. Large sound trucks ("Trio Elétrico") playing Axé and pagode (two Brazilian styles of music) proceed through the streets, each followed by a huge number of people dancing and partying from mid-afternoon late into the night. Salvador has approximately 2.25 million inhabitants. The city has beaches that you can enjoy all year around, spicy food that is still called by its African names (Carurú, Vatapá, Acarajé, etc.). Salvador is the city of the ceremonies of the Candomblé (Yoruban) religion which combines African and Catholic (syncretic) symbolism. In Salvador, you will meet and see people of all ages practicing Capoeira, a mixture of dance and martial art, and dancing to Axé music. All this, plus the exotic people known for their love, affection and dance, make Salvador this very special place. Contact me at sheilawaksman@hotmail.com

Preserving Brazilian Culture Juliana Zanchett from Brazil As most countries, Brazil has frequently been influenced by aspects of American culture. Fast food and music are becoming part of Brazilians' lives. I don't think that this inflluence is really bad, and I'm sure it is not such a big influence; a hamburger could never be more important than our Brazilian rice and beans . If that ever happened, I would really be worried. Nowadays we are learning to appreciate our traditional food such as our traditional cheese bread . We are also making good films which are being watched in the whole world, such as Central Station Also, Brazilian musicians are selling more CDs than most American music groups. I think that we are accepting aspects of American culture, but we still love our own culture and we are preserving it.

Americanization of Brazilian Culture Photo: Eivind Berg I wonder how my father would feel seeing his daughter politically centered, a diet coke addict, sometimes chewing Wrigley's juicy fruit gum, and living in the United States. Yara Berg from Brazil Almost all aspects of American pop culture such as McDonald's, American films, and blue jeans can be seen in Brazil. My father, who had leftist orientated ideas, used to say that all kinds of American cultural icons were distasteful. When I was a child, it was forbidden to drink coke and to chew chewing gum in my house. Both actions were representative of the American dominance to my father, Incongruently, he had an American Ford car. My father died 32 years ago, and I wonder how he would feel seeing his daughter politically centered, a diet coke addict, sometimes chewing Wrigley's juicy fruit gum, and living in the United States. He didn't live long enough to see this and the spread of American culture in the last decades. He would probably be convinced that American pop culture was swamping Brazil. I think it is difficult to curb American cultural hegemony. Many years ago, there was an attempt to reduce the number of American films in Brazil. The government imposed a law that all cinemas should show a higher percentage of Brazilian movies. However, we didn't have enough good films, or even enough films, to show. So, in spite of government subsidies, this measure failed soon after.

Rio's Carnaval 2001 Opens to Record Crowds SAMBA SCHOOLS UNITED IN CLOSEST CARNAVAL COMPETITION Story Filed: Friday February 23, 2001 10:24 AM EST Photos: AP Rio de Janeiro, Feb 23, 2000 (EFE via COMTEX) Carnival is usually a time for Brazilians to escape their troubles, but this year Rio's samba schools will not let them forget one of their society's worst scourges: the spiral of violence. Carnival celebrations kicked off today, Friday, just five days after 20,000 inmates seized 29 jails in Brazil's largest-ever prison revolt. But way before this week's rebellion, the men and women who create Carnival themes had already decided on an anti-violence theme. More than half of the top 14 samba schools will feature peace and violence in their lyrics and on their floats, giving the pageant of 2001 the unofficial title of Carnival of Peace. "We are transforming Carnival into a kind of protest," said Joaosinho Trinta, the famed artistic director of Grande Rio school. "In this time of violence and corruption ... a Carnival of Peace is being born out of necessity."

33. Kevin G. Hall, Beachwear Crackdown Bares Paradox In Brazilian Culture Beachwear crackdown bares paradox in brazilian culture. In brazilian culture,the rear end is the object of sexual attention, not a woman's breasts. http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/42/148.html

Documents menu Beachwear crackdown bares paradox in Brazilian culture By Kevin G. Hall, Knight Ridder, The Seattle Times, Thursday 20 January 2000, 06:59 a.m. Pacific RIO DE JANEIRO - The city known for its scantily clad Carnival dancers and anything-goes approach to sexuality is abuzz. Rio de Janeiro state police arrested a couple over the weekend after the woman refused to cover up her breasts on the beach. They clubbed her boyfriend - in his 60s - when he tried to intervene. While the scandal ostensibly is over toplessness, the incident is a window into Brazilian culture, where religion and pleasure collide and arbitrary actions by police largely go unpunished. Brazil boasts the world's largest Roman Catholic population but is constantly at odds with the Vatican over television ads promoting birth control, wide acceptance of the African-origin Candomble religion and sexual liberalism. Brazilians were surprised when police began cracking down on topless sunbathing last weekend - something the governor of Rio state says will not be repeated. Many Brazilians were outraged and complained of hypocrisy, noting that in early March many Carnival participants will be wearing only a tampa sexo

Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute Home Brazilian Culture Through Music by Judith Dixon Contents of Curriculum Unit 00.05.03: Narrative Introduction Teacher’s Bibliography Teacher’s And Student’s Bibliography ... To Guide Entry Introduction Music is a universal language. It crosses cultural and ethnic backgrounds. People relate to music through expressive and receptive communication. Music is the heart of Brazil. From a simple family gathering to carnaval. Music is the foundation for many of their festivities. In many religious ceremonies the music is one of the main focal points. Brazilian music as well as music in general is soothing, healing, inspiring, and energizing. Music influences Brazilian life a great deal. We will investigate the history of music in Brazil as well as making discoveries of the different sounds and styles of music. We’ll learn about cultural events and how the music is depicted culturally. In collaboration with team members we will investigate a variety of experiments to incorporate the science of sound for a science fair project. Utilizing our music teacher instruments will be made and students taught how to play them. Before each section is introduced the students will know what will be covered in the lesson. Information should be posted on blackboard or poster board. An oral discussion of information is shared by teacher. Questions asked orally (inferential) and in written form. Quizzes and tests will be teacher made. The types of tests will be objective, matching or multiple choice.

Our company has been producing cultural events in Brazilian for 10 years.

Over beers quite a few, as I recall at a philosophy conference in Germany, a professor from the Federal University of Bahia by the name of Jose Cristosomo de Souza issued an open invitation to his fellow philosopher/beer-drinkers to visit him in Brazil. A year later, in the depths of a Minnesota winter, the offhand invitation started to seem like a very good idea. With a friend in tow, I was on my way. Frequent-flyer miles got us as far as Sao Paulo, and from there it was a quick hop to Salvador de Bahia, where Jose picked us up at the airport. Carol Bouska Special To The Star Tribune Bahians come in many different colors, mostly shades of brown, and Brazilian Portuguese has a rich vocabulary to distinguish the many different racial mixtures that make up the Brazilian mosaic. Our pale skin made us a very visible minority, but, even though there is much poverty and racism in Brazil, we sensed little resentment or animosity.
