For Week #2 of Black History month, I figured I'd throw out a post on Capoeira. I'm sure most folks know that this martial art calls Brazil home and was originally used by the descendants of African slaves. What you might not know is the role it played in the eventual abolition of slavery in Brazil.
It's an interesting story (click the link below to read all about it).
