    Default Which of these two American actors passes more easily in Brazil?

    Yes I know Brazilians are very diverse. Nevertheless, the following are two examples of phenotypes that IMO would be quite 'extreme' for Brazil, albeit for opposite reasons. They appear in the sitcom Sister Sister.

    Deon Richmond


    Greg Pitts

    Kind of even, but I think the White dude is more likely to be seen as a gringo. The Black guy, even if walking around in South Brazil, would just be seen as a Black Brazilian. He doesn't look stereotypical Haitian/West African.

    Both pass, of course, but the pink dude would be seen as gringo by many of us, while the black guy simply as Brazilian, so, I'll go with the first.

    White guy looks like he'd start talking and have a thick British or Australian accent

    Both look a bit "off", but as already pointed out, Greg Pitts just screams of Gringo whilst Deon Richmond would just be another black Brazilian as he doesn't look particularly Hatian.

    Both.
    Probably the first could blend ok in the Pelourinho in Salvador or other areas of that same city.
    The second blend ok in several little towns and rural areas of Rio Grande do Sul, oeste catarinense and many parts of inner Paraná.

    Mmm, Haitians/West African on average stand out from the crowd in Brazil? They look different from Black Brazilians?
