[The economic] crisis was caused by no black man or woman or by no indigenous person or by no poor person… This crisis was fostered and boosted by irrational behaviour of some people that are white, blue-eyed. Before the crisis they looked like they knew everything about economics, and they have demonstrated they know nothing about economics.

This is outrageous! Does the President of Brazil give credit to “Blue-eyed White people” for all the good that has come from them? Focusing only on the bad, shows an inherent racism.
