Rare example of Portuguese racial attitude. From Wiki-pedia: The maxixe Portuguese pronunciation: ma��i�i occasionally known as the Brazilian tango is a dance with its accompanying music that originated in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro in 1868 at about the same time as the tango was developing in neighbouring Argentina and Uruguay. It is a dance developed from Afro-Brazilian dances mainly the lundu and from European dances mainly the polka. Like the tango the maxixe travelled to Europe and the United States in the early years of the 20th century.The music was influenced by various other forms including the Spanish tango lundu polka and habanera and is danced to a rapid 2/4 time. The maxixe was one of the dances that contributed to samba dance styles such as samba de gafieira and lambada. Joao Victoria Paperback
