perspectivas distintas e dissonantes, apesar da falta do debate<br />
com os críticos dos afro-centrismos, deslocados, impedidos e<br />
ausentes nos debates. De todo modo, esperamos que a Conferência<br />
provoque mais reflexões sobre as relações raciais e a<br />
possibilidade de novas relações sul-sul, principalmente qu<strong>and</strong>o<br />
percebidas as dinâmicas social brasileira e latino-americana.<br />

so-called Yellow Race happened in the 1970s, in the<br />
twentieth century.<br />
What is more provocative in this mythological<br />
construction is its transnational ethno-genesis: the<br />
ideology of a racial democracy is present in Latin<br />
American countries like Venezuela, Colombia,<br />
Ecuador, <strong>and</strong> even Cuba. It has less to do with<br />
local symbolic production <strong>and</strong> more to do with the<br />
transnational, in the context of colonization.<br />
Certainly, the <strong>CIAD</strong> <strong>II</strong> had the m<strong>and</strong>ate to bring<br />
together distinct <strong>and</strong> dissonant perspectives, despite<br />
the lack of a debate with critics of displaced, impeded<br />
or absent Afro-centrisms in the debates. At any<br />
rate, we hope that the Conference provokes more<br />
reflections about racial relations <strong>and</strong> the possibility<br />
of new south-south relations, principally evidenced<br />
in Brazilian <strong>and</strong> Latin American social dynamics.<br />
