In Brazil, there has been at least some history of non-comedic use of blackface, using white actors for black characters like [[Uncle Tom's Cabin|Uncle Tom]] (although the practice of "racelift", or making black/mulatto characters into [[mestizo|mestiços]]/swarthy whites/[[caboclo]]s, is more frequent than blackface).<ref>[https://virtualia.blogs.sapo.pt/29596.html Os Negros Nas Novelas], blog ''Virtualia'', May 23, 2009.</ref><ref>[http://lostinjapan.portalnippon.com/2012/06/cor-de-gabriela-lost-in-japan.html A Cor de Gabriela] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130126103416/http://lostinjapan.portalnippon.com/2012/06/cor-de-gabriela-lost-in-japan.html |date=January 26, 2013 }}, ''Lost in Japan'', June 18, 2012.</ref><ref>[http://f5.folha.uol.com.br/televisao/988689-caixa-refaz-propaganda-e-mostra-machado-de-assis-mulato.shtml Caixa refaz propaganda e mostra Machado de Assis mulato] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130129172831/http://f5.folha.uol.com.br/televisao/988689-caixa-refaz-propaganda-e-mostra-machado-de-assis-mulato.shtml |date=January 29, 2013 }}, F5, ''[[Folha de S.Paulo]]'', October 10, 2011.</ref> Use of blackface in humor has been used more rarely than in Portugal, although it also continues into this century (but it creates major uproar among the sizeable and more politically active [[Afro-Brazilians|Afro-Brazilian]] community).<ref>[http://www.pragmatismopolitico.com.br/2012/08/racismo-explicito-no-zorra-total-relembra-humor-segregacionista-dos-eua.html "Racismo explícito no Zorra Total relembra humor segregacionista dos EUA"], ''Pragmatismo Político'', August 15, 2012.</ref>
