I want to know the answer to the following question:
What does Preto mean?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Some scholars disagree, arguing that "whitening" of one's social status may be open to people of mixed race, a large part of the population known as pardo, but a person perceived as preto (black) will continue to be classified as black regardless of wealth or social status.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
