Vogue Brazil editor resigns after hosting party evoking slavery images
As the Guardian reported,
many criticized the scene for the way it recalled colonial depictions of a master posing with house slaves, down to the cadeira da sinhá, the ornate chair of the master. (Sinhá was a term for a female master.)
One person on Instagram compared it to a photo from 1860 titled,
“Woman from the Costa Carvalho family seated with two slaves.” Others dubbed it a slavery-themed party.
