In 1835, a group of enslaved African Muslims in Brazil launched one of the most organized revolts in the Americas. Why isn’t this story widely known?
In this episode of Stories of Resistance, we take you to Salvador, Bahia—once the heart of Portuguese colonial Brazil—where the Mali Rebellion broke out during the last days of Ramadan. More than a revolt, this was a battle for freedom, faith, and identity led by literate, devout, and fiercely determined individuals.
Who were the Malês? What role did Islam play in uniting people across different ethnic backgrounds? And what can we learn from the resistance of women like Luisa Mahin, whose memory still haunts Brazilian history?
This forgotten chapter challenges the dominant narratives around slavery, religion, and rebellion in Latin America. It's a story that refuses to be erased.
