Hi mate. I'm Brazilian as well (deve as well), but white as it gets. I always wanted to hear from a black person about their experiences in general (not only in IT industry). I never asked for 2 reasons: 1 - very few black colleagues, 2 - afraid of sounding condescending or that the guy may not want to talk about it.
It's very sad to see how few "majority" people are able to observe the obstacles faced by any minority and, in the case of Brazil and UK (where I live now), black people.
I was very nice to read about the author's experiences and how he felt about it because it gives me a bit of insight on this matter. At least now I know I was right about not asking "how is it to be a black guy at..." hahaha
