CAMPBELL DOME

Please join Dr. Maxine L. Margolis in a conversation about the millions of Brazilian émigrés living abroad. Her recent book, 'Goodbye Brazil' is the first study to provide a global perspective on Brazilian emigration, examining how Brazilian immigrants, largely from the middle rungs of Brazilian society, have negotiated their ethnic identity outside Brazil.

Maxine L. Margolis is Professor Emerita of Anthropology at the University of Florida and Adjunct Senior Research Scholar at the Institute for Latin American Studies at Columbia University.

Presented by the Department of Anthropology, the Center for Latin American and Latino Studies, and Year of Brazil.
