📅 16 September 1931 📍 Brazilië

Founded in São Paulo on 16 September 1931, the Frente Negra Brasileira built a wide network of Black social and political organizing, with branches in several states. It offered education, community services, cultural life, and a platform to claim rights in a society that proclaimed racial harmony while maintaining discrimination. The organization drew on decades of Black association and press activity. Its internal politics were diverse and sometimes contested; it should not be reduced to a single ideology or treated as the whole of Black activism.
