There is a Brazilian diaspora in Mexico. Although the first Portuguese-speaking immigrants in Mexico were the Portuguese, Brazilians today are the largest Portuguese-speaking community living in the country, numbering around 45,000 individuals.
History
There has been a Brazilian presence in Mexico since at least 1895, when the National Census counted 91 residents. [2] As a result of the 1964 Brazilian coup d'état, around one hundred individuals were admitted into Mexico as political refugees. [3]
Institutions
Founded in 1945 in Mexico City, the main cultural organization is the Centro Cultural Brasil-México. [4] With more than fourteen thousand works, the center houses the largest collection of Brazilian books in Mexico. [4] The collection grew through the donations from the Brazilian community, the Brazilian Embassy and publishers that have participated in the Guadalajara International Book Fair. [4]
