Then, may Brazil have seen a turning point in the Latin American multicultural shift? How could we define these approaches and how are they entering into a dialogue? This article analyzes ethnic-racial policies in Brazil, under the lens of a dialogue between multicultural models and racial equality policies. Likewise, we consider an analysis on the current times and the challenges still facing the full come into effect of Brazilian Black population’s rights
