▲ A black woman protesting in front of a building where Shiuba has crashed
Interracial conflict is escalating in Brazil following the death of a five-year-old black boy.
In Recife, northeastern Brazil, hundreds of African Americans protested with the phrase ``Black people's lives are precious,'' AFP News reported today (local time).
It was the death of Miguel da Ciuba, a five-year-old black boy, who set fire to the anger of the black people.
Siuba went to the white employer's apartment with his maid's mother, and then died on the balcony.
My mother was out to take her employer's pet dog for a walk.
According to the CCTV screen at the time the local media released, Shiuba went up to the 9th floor by himself in an elevator.
The problem was the behavior of a white woman, the mother's employer.
This white woman did not stop Shiuba, who was only five years old, from riding the elevator alone.
CCTV was also seen watching a conversation with Shiuba through the elevator door.
In particular, the white woman reached out and pressed the button to the highest floor just before the elevator door closed.
When the door was closed, the elevator went up with only Shiuba on board.
It is also possible to interpret that this white woman contributed to the cause of the child's fall.
Protesters departed from Recife Court and marched to the building where Siuba died, demanding punishment for white women.
The proportion of blacks in Brazil is 56%, but average income is only half of whites.
