Brazil in the nineteenth century was an Empire, and not a Republic , so basic questions about Citizen"s equal rights were second fiddle to larger national viability issues. Brazil had the grim distinction, Latin-American ( Felicidad) aside- of not formally abolishing slavery until l888., the law taking effect the following year. Stop and think,Con Ed power and Light had been up and running for TEN YEARS before Brazil abolished slavery! Slavery and related issues ( Draft animals, for example) went hand in hand and were more common in basically Agrarian countries. Even in the United States there were laws that strongly discouraged peasants ( farm workers) from changing jobs, there are some ghost6 winds of the whip lash in there!)
