Young black men: Racism and incarceration

Abstract

Andréa Rocha Pires, who claims to be of African descent, grew up on the outskirts of Bauru/SP, started working at the age of 10 in her family's small business, and until she graduated as a social worker, she worked as a gas station attendant, secretary and computer teacher. What led the author to choose the course to work as a social worker was the massacre at candelária in 1993. She started her social worker course at a private university in Bauru, finishing it at the public university as a scholarship student in 2000.
