About Book
The first book in the Lembranças Africanas collection brings all the charm of capoeira, a swinging fight that emerged in Brazil from the Bantu blacks of Angola, who came to Brazil as slaves - a form of defense in the struggles against slavery. The slaves from the plantations went to the capoeiras to dance and fight. That's why the fight got its name. With beautiful illustrations by Rosinha Campos, it begins the collection recommended by FNLIJ.
