Workbook
For Brazilian (American) Families
A Workbook for the Community That Is Neither Latino Nor Not — and Navigates Both Erasures
You are Brazilian in America and American in Brazil. That's your belonging.
For the Brazilian American family navigating identity erasure within Latino categories and the tension between assimilation and cultural preservation across generations.
The Name It First Experience
You are Portuguese speakers in a Spanish-speaking category. Not real Latinos by America's count, not quite American either. Your Brazil is a country, not a checkbox. This workbook maps the real territory of being from Brazil and living in America. You will build The Brazilian American Family Charter — a stress-tested and signed document claiming your family's identity on its own terms.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What box do you check when America asks you to name what you are — and what does that box leave out?
- When your Brazilian identity is erased or miscategorized, what typically happens in you — and have you named that reaction before?
- What would the Brazilian American Family Charter say about who you are that the available categories don't?
