Did the Portuguese Empire establish a racial caste system in their colonies like the Spaniards did?
Were there any movements or protests against this caste system?
Yes, there were many movements and protests against the caste system in Portuguese colonies, particularly in Brazil. For example, the Quilombo dos Palmares was a community of escaped slaves that fought against Portuguese forces for several decades until they were finally defeated. Additionally, there were several abolitionist movements in Brazil and other Portuguese colonies throughout the 18th and 19th centuries.
