📅 9 December 1948 📍 Brazilië

The first issue of Quilombo: vida, problemas e aspirações do negro appeared on 9 December 1948, linked to the Teatro Experimental do Negro. Under Abdias do Nascimento’s coordination, the periodical addressed politics, culture, education, labor, and racial inequality. It published Black intellectuals and allies while building a public forum for demands such as access to education and recognition of African heritage. The newspaper is a counter-archive to accounts that present abolition as having resolved racial injustice.
