About the Flag
Na�ao Mesti�a was established in 2001 in Manaus (Amazonas) as a reaction to
the traditional division of the Brazilian society according to ethnic origins
(white, black, natives...) and the the demonization and hyphenation of
miscegenation ("afro-amer�ndio", "�ndio-descendente", "afro-descendente", "euro-descendente").
The movement's motto, "Miscegenation unites a Nation" says it all.
Na�ao
Mesti�a organized its first workshop in 2007 and set up the Mesti�o and Caboclo
Month. Upon its request, the Amazonas Legislative Assembly prescribed a Caboclo
Day (24 June) and a Mesti�o Day (27 June). The movement organized the 1st
Mesti�o Congress on 20 June 2011.
