Introduction: Breast cancer has become an increasing concern and is a major global public health burden. Over100, 000 new breast cancer patients are estimated to be diagnosed annually in India. The health care facilitypattern is diverse, where the benefits of the awareness, early diagnosis and treatment programs is still notavailable in many regions of the country. However, the study aimed to assess the awareness of the small scalecommunity women on breast cancer, its risk factors and utilization of manmmogram as a screening test. Thiswill give an insight for the large scale community study.Methods: The researcher adopted a descriptive research design using a simple random sampling technique tocollect data among 20 unmarried and married women from the village of Badagabettu, Udupi district, Karnataka.Tools were developed and sent for validation. Reliability of tools were done before the data collection. Data wascollected after getting ethical clearance and written consent from the participants. Collected data were analyzedusing the descriptive statistics through SPSS version 16.0.Result: Majority 14 (70%) had moderate knowledge on breast cancer, 6 (30%) had poor knowledge and none (0%)were having good knowledge on breast cancer. The study also revealed that 30% were aware of mammogramand majority 70% were not. The risk factors for breast cancer among women aged 35 years also revealed that15% women had menarche at the age of ≤ 12 years, 5% have the history of having sister diagnosed with breastcancer, 15% did not deliver baby till now and 30% women did not breast feed. There were 5% women who hadthe history of breast biopsy, 10% had the history of taking oral contraceptives within 5 years period and 100%did not have the history of taking alcohol in their life.

Published: October 2022

Family is the main support system in caring for its members, including the elderly with hypertension. Treatment of the disease in old people is through help from a spouse, child, or close relatives because they often live with their families. Therefore, this study aims to determine the form of family support in controlling hypertension among the elderly, including physiological, psychological, socio-cultural, and spiritual supports. The qualitative method was used with a descriptive phenomenological approach. The respondents consist of eight family members who cared for the elderly with uncomplicated hypertension during the past year. The themes found include responding to hypertension with traditional ingredients, the existence of quality time with the elderly, being free to select the activities they like, and prioritizing themselves to worship a lot. Based on the results, efforts are needed from community nurses to provide health promotion education on the importance of family support in controlling hypertension amond people.

Eye tracking measurements taken while watching a wide field screen are challenging to perform. Commercially available remote eye trackers typically do not measure more than 35 degrees in eccentricity. Analysis software was developed using the Pupil Core Eye Tracking data to analyze viewing behavior under circumstances as natural as possible, on a 1.55-m-wide screen allowing free head movements. Additionally, dynamic area of interest (AOI) analyses were performed on data of participants viewing traffic scenes. A toolkit was created including software for simple allocation of dynamic AOIs (semi-automatically and manually), measurement of parameters such as dwell times and time to first entry, and overlaying gaze and AOIs on video. Participants (n =11) were asked to look at 13 dynamic AOIs in traffic scenes from appearance to disappearance in order to validate the setup and software. Different AOI margins were explored for the included objects. The median ratio between total appearance time and dwell time was about 90% for most objects when appropriate margins were chosen. This validated open-source toolkit is readily available for researchers who want to perform dynamic AOI analyses with the Pupil Core eye tracker, especially when measurements are desired on a wide screen, in various fields such as psychology, transportation, and low vision research.

A large number of publications have focused on the study of pain expressions. Despite the growing knowledge, the availability of pain-related face databases is still very scarce compared with other emotional facial expressions. The Pain E-Motion Faces Database (PEMF) is a new open-access database currently consisting of 272 micro-clips of 68 different identities. Each model displays one neutral expression and three pain-related facial expressions: posed, spontaneous-algometer and spontaneous-CO2laser. Normative ratings of pain intensity, valence and arousal were provided by students of three different European universities. Six independent coders carried out a coding process on the facial stimuli based on the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), in which ratings of intensity of pain, valence and arousal were computed for each type of facial expression. Gender and age effects of models across each type of micro-clip were also analysed. Additionally, participants’ ability to discriminate the veracity of pain-related facial expressions (i.e., spontaneous vs posed) was explored. Finally, a series of ANOVAs were carried out to test the presence of other basic emotions and common facial action unit (AU) patterns. The main results revealed that posed facial expressions received higher ratings of pain intensity, more negative valence and higher arousal compared with spontaneous pain-related and neutral faces. No differential effects of model gender were found. Participants were unable to accurately discriminate whether a given pain-related face represented spontaneous or posed pain. PEMF thus constitutes a large open-source and reliable set of dynamic pain expressions useful for designing experimental studies focused on pain processes.

Authors: Giofrè David , Boedker Ingrid , Cumming Geoff , Rivella Carlotta , Tressoldi Patrizio
Published: October 2022

Changes in statistical practices and reporting have been documented by Giofrè et al. PLOS ONE 12(4), e0175583 (2017), who investigated ten statistical and open practices in two high-ranking journals (Psychological Science [PS] and Journal of Experimental Psychology-General [JEPG]): null hypothesis significance testing; confidence or credible intervals; meta-analysis of the results of multiple experiments; confidence interval interpretation; effect size interpretation; sample size determination; data exclusion; data availability; materials availability; and preregistered design and analysis plan. The investigation was based on an analysis of all papers published in these journals between 2013 and 2015. The aim of the present study was to follow up changes in both PS and JEPG in subsequent years, from 2016 to 2020, adding code availability as a further open practice. We found improvement in most practices, with some exceptions (i.e., confidence interval interpretation and meta-analysis). Despite these positive changes, our results indicate a need for further improvements in statistical practices and adoption of open practices.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of central nervous system with presumed autoimmune origin. It is largely accepted that the inflammatory induced loss of axons and neurons is the underlying cause of disability in multiple sclerosis patients. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a new neuroimaging technique based on MRI, used for quantification of water diffusion in tissues. We performed DTI to 12 MS patients in order to assess diffusion parameters (fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity, longitudinal diffusivity (F1) and transversal diffusivities (F2, F3). We found that F1 may be used as an indicator of axonal loss in human as well, proving a good correlation with degree of disability.

We report a case of a patient with superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, a recently described condition in which vestibular imbalance and/or hearing loss results from the discontinuity of the bone overlying the superior semicircular canals. Case report. A 46-years-old women presented with autophony in the left ear and imbalance when shouting (Tullio phenomenon). Temporal bone computer tomography revealed a defect of the left superior semicircular canal caused by an enlarged superior petrosal sinus receiving drainage from a large cerebellar developmental venous anomaly. Conclusion. We review superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome and its management, and we discuss common aetiologies. We conclude that superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome may present with a solely developmental aetiology, despite presenting late in life.

Published: October 2022

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of persistent (but not necessarily unchanged), movement, posture, muscle tone, and motor skills disorders, with early onset, due to non-progressive impairments, occurring on an immature brain or a brain under development (prenatal, perinatal, postnatal during the first 3-4 years of life). It is associated to a variable extent with: cognitive disorders, epilepsy, sensory deficits, behaviour disorders. The aim of this study. The study of the correlations between the clinical forms/subtypes of CP and aetiology. Material and method. It is a retrospective trial aimed only at patients with the diagnosis of cerebral palsy admitted at Paediatric Neurology Clinic of the Clinical Hospital “Alexandru Obregia” in 2010. Results and discussions. Patients with cerebral palsy corresponding with the criteria for inclusion: 379 CP was due to prenatal aetiology in 32.45% cases, perinatal aetiology in 60.15% case, postnatal aetiology in 10.8 % cases. Prenatal aetiology was represented mostly by malformations 43.1%. Compared with perinatal or postnatal aetiologies, ataxic forms were more frequently of prenatal cause. The unilateral spastic form was correlated significantly from a statistical point of view with prenatal aetiology – malformations (p0.003) and the dyskinetic form with unknown prenatal aetiology. Mental retardation was present in 86.4% of the cases with assumed prenatal aetiology and was severe in 38.2% of the cases. The perinatal aetiology was represented by PVL 32% haemorrhage 21.1%, hypoxia 18.4%, stroke 14%, the aetiology being unknown in 7% of the cases. The distribution was comparable to that of other causes with a higher frequency of dyskinetic forms. The correlations between the perinatal aetiology and the clinical forms were (p0.000): LPV with spastic diplegia and tetraplegia, perinatal stroke with spastic hemiplegia, perinatal hypoxia with ataxic and dyskinetic forms, peri/intraventricular haemorrhage with spastic triplegia. Perinatal aetiology was correlated significantly with retardation as follows: perinatal stroke with the absence of mental delay, and hypoxia with severe and profound retardation (p0.001) Postnatal aetiology had: infections 36.6%, stroke 17%, stabilized hydrocephaly 17%, cardio- respiratory arrest 9.8%, trauma 7.3%. The number of cases was too small for significant correlations. Conclusions. Aetiology and the time of the occurrence of the lesion are important in cerebral palsy.

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a rare type of inflammatory arthritis. We present a 21-year-old male diagnosed with psoriasis six years ago. Inflammatory autoimmune arthritis was diagnosed. TMJ involvement comprised arthralgia, degenerative joint disease, joint pain, limited range of jaw movements, and crepitus. Biomarkers revealed a C-reactive protein of 0.14 mg/L and seronegative inflammation with negative rheumatoid factor. At imaging important left condyle morphology derangements with erosions, decreased subchondral bone fat signal, condyle edema, osteophytes, and periosteal apposition, and loss of the normal disk position and morphology were present. The particularity of this case is given by the rapid onset of psoriasis arthritis with negative rheumatoid factor in a young male and juxta-articular new bone formation. The treatment plan comprised anti-inflammatory drugs, methotrexate, and folic acid, aimed for the general disease, and an occlusal splint, aiming for the relief of the TMJ symptoms.

We report observations of the recently discovered warm Neptune TOI-674 b (5.25 R
⊕, 23.6 M
⊕) with the Hubble Space Telescope’s Wide Field Camera 3 instrument. TOI-674 b is in the Neptune desert, an observed paucity of Neptune-size exoplanets at short orbital periods. Planets in the desert are thought to have complex evolutionary histories due to photoevaporative mass loss or orbital migration, making identifying the constituents of their atmospheres critical to understanding their origins. We obtained near-infrared transmission spectroscopy of the planet’s atmosphere with the G141 grism. After extracting, detrending, and fitting the spectral light curves to measure the planet’s transmission spectrum, we used the petitRADTRANS atmospheric spectral synthesis code to perform retrievals on the planet’s atmosphere to identify which absorbers are present. These results show moderate evidence for increased absorption at 1.4 μm due to water vapor at 2.9σ (Bayes factor = 15.8), as well as weak evidence for the presence of clouds at 2.2σ (Bayes factor = 4.0). TOI-674 b is a strong candidate for further study to refine the water abundance, which is poorly constrained by our data. We also incorporated new TESS short-cadence optical photometry, as well as Spitzer/IRAC data, and refit the transit parameters for the planet. We find the planet to have the following transit parameters: R

Joint Constraints on Exoplanetary Orbits from Gaia DR3 and Doppler Data
Authors: Winn Joshua N.
Published: October 2022

The third Gaia data release includes a catalog of exoplanets and exoplanet candidates identified via the star’s astrometric motion. This paper reports on tests for consistency between the Gaia two-body orbital solutions and precise Doppler velocities for stars currently amenable to such a comparison. For BD-17 0063, HD 81040, and HD 132406, the Gaia orbital solution and the Doppler data were found to be consistent and were fitted jointly to obtain the best possible constraints on the planets’ orbits and masses. Inconsistencies were found for four stars: HD 111232, probably due to additional planets that were not included in the astrometric model; HD 175167 and HR 810, possibly due to inaccurate treatment of non-Gaussian uncertainties in the Gaia orbital solutions; and HIP 66074, for unknown reasons. Consistency tests were also performed for HD 114762, which was reported in 1989 to have a brown dwarf or exoplanet but has since been shown to be a binary star. The joint Gaia–Doppler analysis shows the secondary mass to be 0.215 ± 0.013 M
⊙ and the orbital inclination to be 3.°63 ± 0.°06.

We present DELIGHT, or Deep Learning Identification of Galaxy Hosts of Transients, a new algorithm designed to automatically and in real time identify the host galaxies of extragalactic transients. The proposed algorithm receives as input compact, multiresolution images centered at the position of a transient candidate and outputs two-dimensional offset vectors that connect the transient with the center of its predicted host. The multiresolution input consists of a set of images with the same number of pixels, but with progressively larger pixel sizes and fields of view. A sample of 16,791 galaxies visually identified by the Automatic Learning for the Rapid Classification of Events broker team was used to train a convolutional neural network regression model. We show that this method is able to correctly identify both relatively large (10″ < r < 60″) and small (r ≤ 10″) apparent size host galaxies using much less information (32 kB) than with a large, single-resolution image (920 kB). The proposed method has fewer catastrophic errors in recovering the position and is more complete and has less contamination (<0.86%) recovering the crossmatched redshift than other state-of-the-art methods. The more efficient representation provided by multiresolution input images could allow for the identification of transient host galaxies in real time, if adopted in alert streams from new generation of large -etendue telescopes such as the Vera C. Rubin Observatory.

Our large vacuum system apparatus is able to measure the emission cross sections of the strongest optically forbidden UV transitions found in planetary spectra. Based on our cross-sectional measurements, previous CB emission cross-sectional errors exceed a factor of 3. The UV doublet lifetime is perturbed through

AURIC and Trans-Mars are used in the analysis of UV spectra from the Martian dayglow and aurora.
Phase Mixing and the 1/f Spectrum in the Solar Wind
Authors: Magyar Norbert , Doorsselaere Tom Van
Published: October 2022

The origin and evolution of the 1/f power law observed in the energy spectrum of solar coronal and solar wind fluctuations at scales of around an hour is not entirely understood. Several existing theories aim at explaining it, involving both linear and nonlinear mechanisms. An often overlooked property of the solar corona and solar wind is their highly inhomogeneous nature. In this paper we investigate the linear evolution of pure Alfvén and surface Alfvén waves propagating through a plasma that is inhomogeneous across the magnetic field. The inhomogeneity is given by density, which we model to be 2D colored noise, with power spectral slopes ranging from −2 to −1. Alfvén waves propagate independently on individual magnetic field lines, and eventually get completely out of phase through the process of phase mixing, leading to unrealistic spectra. When the coupling between the inhomogeneous background and the propagating waves is fully accounted for, transverse waves such as surface Alfvén waves (also referred to as kink or Alfvénic) appear, showing collective wave behavior of neighboring magnetic field lines with different Alfvén speeds. We show that the linear cascade of surface Alfvén wave energy, induced by phase mixing and resonant absorption, leads to a perpendicular wave energy spectrum, which tends to the perpendicular power spectrum of the background density. Based on our model, we propose that a perpendicular density power spectrum of 1/f in the solar corona can induce, through linear processes, the 1/f spectrum of the fluctuations that is observed at the largest scales.

NGC 602 is a young, low-metallicity star cluster in the “Wing” of the Small Magellanic Cloud. We reveal the recent evolutionary past of the cluster through analysis of high-resolution (∼0.4 pc) Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations of molecular gas in the associated H ii region N90. We identify 110 molecular clumps (R < 0.8 pc) traced by CO emission, and study the relationship between the clumps and associated young stellar objects (YSOs) and pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars. The clumps have high virial parameters (typical α
vir = 4–11) and may retain signatures of a collision in the last ≲8 Myr between H i components of the adjacent supergiant shell SMC-SGS 1. We obtain a CO-bright-to-H2 gas conversion factor of X
CO,B
= (3.4 ± 0.2) × 1020 cm−2 (K km s−1)−1, and correct observed clump properties for CO-dark H2 gas to derive a total molecular gas mass in N90 of 16,600 ± 2400 M
⊙. We derive a recent (≲1 Myr) star formation rate of 130 ± 30 M
⊙ Myr−1 with an efficiency of 8% ± 3% assessed through comparing total YSO mass to total molecular gas mass. Very few significant radial trends exist between clump properties or PMS star ages and distance from NGC 602. We do not find evidence for a triggered star formation scenario among the youngest (≲2 Myr) stellar generations, and instead conclude that a sequential star formation process in which NGC 602 did not directly cause recent star formation in the region is likely.

Gas accretion is an important process in the evolution of galaxies, but it has limited direct observational evidences. In this paper, we report the detection of a possible ongoing gas accretion event in a blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy, MaNGA 8313-1901, observed by the Mapping Nearby Galaxies and Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) program. This galaxy has a distinct off-centered blue clump to the northeast (the NE clump) that shows low metallicity and enhanced star formation. The kinematics of the gas in the NE clump also seems to be detached from the host BCD galaxy. Together with the metallicity drop of the NE clump, it suggests that the NE clump likely has an external origin, such as gas accretion or galaxy interaction, rather than an internal origin, such as an H II complex in the disk. After removing the underlying host component, we find that the spectrum of the “pure” clump can match very well with a modeled spectrum containing a stellar population of the young stars (≤7 Myr) only. This may imply that the galaxy is experiencing an accretion of cold gas, instead of a merger event involving galaxies with significant preexisting old stars. We also find signs of another clump (the SW clump) at the southwest corner of the host galaxy, and the two clumps may share the same origin of gas accretion.

Type III radio bursts are the result of plasma emission from mildly relativistic electron beams propagating from the low solar corona into the heliosphere where they can eventually be detected in situ if they align with the location of a heliospheric spacecraft. Here we observe a type III radio burst from 0.1 to 16 MHz using the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) FIELDS Radio Frequency Spectrometer (RFS) and from 20 to 80 MHz using the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR). This event was not associated with any detectable flare activity but was part of an ongoing type III and noise storm that occurred during PSP encounter 2. A deprojection of the LOFAR radio sources into 3D space shows that the type III radio burst sources were located on open magnetic field from 1.6 to 3 R
⊙ and originated from a near-equatorial active region around longitude E48°. Combining PSP/RFS observations with WIND/WAVES and Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) WAVES, we reconstruct the type III radio source trajectory in the heliosphere interior to PSP’s position, assuming ecliptic confinement. An energetic electron enhancement is subsequently detected in situ at the STEREO A spacecraft at compatible times, although the onset and duration suggests the individual burst contributes a subset of the enhancement. This work shows relatively small-scale flux emergence in the corona can cause the injection of electron beams from the low corona into the heliosphere, without needing a strong solar flare. The complementary nature of combined ground and space-based radio observations, especially in the era of PSP, is also clearly highlighted by this study.
Effective Drag in Rotating, Poorly Conducting Plasma Turbulence

Despite the increasing sophistication of numerical models of hot Jupiter atmospheres, the large timescale separation required in simulating the wide range in electrical conductivity between the dayside and nightside has made it difficult to run fully consistent magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) models. This has led to many studies that resort to drag parameterizations of MHD. In this study, we revisit the question of the Lorentz force as an effective drag by running a series of direct numerical simulations of a weakly rotating, poorly conducting flow in the presence of a misaligned, strong background magnetic field. We find that the drag parameterization fails once the timescale associated with the Lorentz force becomes shorter than the dynamical timescale in the system, beyond which the effective drag coefficient remains roughly constant, despite orders-of-magnitude variation in the Lorentz (magnetic) timescale. We offer an improvement to the drag parameterization by considering the relevant asymptotic limit of low conductivity and strong background magnetic field, known as the quasi-static MHD approximation of the Lorentz force. This approximation removes the fast timescale associated with magnetic diffusion, but retains a more complex version of the Lorentz force, which could be utilized in future numerical models of hot Jupiter atmospheric circulation.

Este artigo objetiva discutir as possibilidades de abarcar questões de gênero e inclusão por meio de um projeto internacional de Leitura para Todos/Todas que decorre em Portugal e propõe livros em multiformatos e multissensoriais baseadas na mediação da Tecnologia e abordagens do Desenho Universal para a Aprendizagem – DUA. O estudo em questão culminou na criação e difusão de uma história da/para comunidade que foi ressignificada no trabalho coletivo intergeracional, enquanto artefato cultural e que impulsiona o papel dos educadores/docentes na desmistificação de temas da inclusão e sexismo naturalizados nas histórias infantis. A questão que motivou esse estudo foi analisar quais as potencialidades do livro em multiformatos/multissensoriais “Rainha das Rosas” para discussões de temas que abarcam os estudos de gênero, diversidade e inclusão. O estudo trata de uma pesquisa exploratória, de natureza qualitativa e apoia-se metodologicamente no estudo de caso etnográfico. Após a recolha dos dados optou-se pela triangulação para validação dos resultados. As reflexões descritas nesse artigo caracterizam-se como recorte de pesquisa das autoras e de processo doutoral, articuladas a um projeto de pesquisa internacional entre Brasil e Portugal com apoio financeiro da CAPES. A análise  evidenciou que  a obra oportuniza reflexões sobre as diferentes tecnologias em prol da comunicação e  inclusão, favorece a discussões de diversidade e gênero ao ressaltar o papel da mulher na sociedade e as formas sexistas, patriarcais e culturais evidenciadas nessa obra infantil,  bem como a viabilização de novas formas de ressignificar práticas de leitura, a ampliar o conhecimento das relações existentes entre inclusão e diversidade,  e que tensiona  o (re) pensar de forma crítica as criações/adaptações de obras literárias além de estimular o diálogo inter, trans e multidisciplinar.

Esta pesquisa parte de algumas inquietações sobre a docência masculina na educação infantil, como é o dia a dia desse docente? Existem resistências ao seu trabalho por ser homem? Traçamos como objetivo geral: analisar a docência masculina na educação infantil na Rede Municipal de Educação de Campo Grande – MS. Esta é uma pesquisa qualitativa com abordagem documental bibliográfica e de campo. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com três professores do sexo masculino que atuam ou atuaram na Educação Infantil dessa rede de ensino. Os dados coletados foram sistematizados e analisados com base nos pressupostos de Alencastro (2009), Ramos (2011), Ramos e Xavier (2012) e Silva (2014). Os resultados indicam que os professores precisaram de um longo tempo para conquistar a confiança dos pais e dos colegas de trabalho não para superarem todas as desconfianças, mas para estabelecer uma rotina respeitosa de trabalho e convívio extraclasse.
Um ponto de vista feminista negro sobre o aborto
Authors: Ribeiro Denize de Almeida
Published: October 2022

A teoria feminista negra, apoia a ideia de que as mulheres negras possuem a vivência de múltiplas e concomitantes formas de discriminação, e que, por conta de tal experiência, elas podem vir a desenvolver um "ponto de vista feminista negro" sobre diversas situações, o que as posicionaria num lugar de reação e luta contra as opressões de raça, gênero, classe, entre outras (Bairros, 1995). Neste artigo tem-se o objetivo de discutir a situação do aborto, como uma das formas de expressão das opressões de raça, classe e gênero, para as mulheres negras no Brasil. O estudo foi feito a partir de um levantamento nas Bibliotecas Virtuais da Saúde, de artigos que tratam do aborto em mulheres negras. Encontrou-se 14 artigos: Lilacs (06), Scielo (08) e Medline (0). Os resultados deste levantamento nos ajudam a compreender como se encontram as pesquisas sobre o aborto em mulheres negras no Brasil, reconhecendo ser esta uma pauta de relevada importância para a luta feminista negra. Considera-se ainda, que a escassez de estudos sobre o tema, evidencia os efeitos do racismo no campo das pesquisas e publicações, e também demonstra a necessidade de aprofundamento, para uma análise dos impactos do racismo nas experiências reprodutivas dessas mulheres.
Corpo negro “desmortificado”: reflexões sobre a resistência negra presente no videoclipe “A Carne” (2017)
Authors: Gomes Cornélio Beatriz , Herneck Heloisa Raimunda
Published: October 2022

Este artigo consiste em reflexões desenvolvidas no decorrer do Mestrado em Educação na Universidade Federal de Viçosa. O objetivo é, por meio de uma análise etnográfica de tela, compreender a importância da emergência das questões raciais na esfera pública por meio do videoclipe da música “A carne”, interpretada por Elza Soares em 2017, entendendo esse movimento enquanto “desmortificação” do corpo negro, ou seja, um enfrentamento ao histórico de tentativas de apagamento e marginalização de negros e negras na sociedade. Para tanto, contamos com as contribuições de Oliveira (2017) e Deleuze (2002) em suas leituras para entender as teorias de Espinosa sobre as potencialidades do corpo e Arendt (2002), sobre a concepção de esfera pública. Observamos que a emergência das questões raciais, além de se manifestar enquanto possibilidade de desmortificação individual, age também no plano coletivo, onde por meio da arte, mais negros e negras se identificam e ressignificam a própria existência.
