Brazilians

Brazilians have arrived in Sydney in two waves -- largely unskilled migrants in the 1970s, attracted by an Australian government assistance scheme, and middle-class migrants, in the 1990s, attracted by a better quality of life. Despite this class divide, Brazilian festivals and the popularity of Brazilian arts and music bring the community together.
