This Tuesday, the 18th, Djamila Ribeiro taught her first class at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where she serves as a visiting professor under the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK Chair). \u201cIt was a joy to teach a class at the invitation of Professor Rosabelli, coordinator of MIT Brazil. It was my first time in the classroom at the university that welcomes me this year as a DR. MLK Chair visiting scholar,\u201d she shared on social media.<\/p>\n

The event was part of MIT\u2019s exchange program with Brazil, which connects MIT undergraduate and graduate students with Brazilian institutions to create experiences that foster relationship-building and address complex challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cMIT maintains programs in several countries that promote research, language study, and academic exchange. Part of the group is about to travel to Manaus, where they will take part in a special exchange program. Also present were students who, in January, will join the exchange program led by Professor Joaquin Terrones, who has for years selected groups for immersive experiences in Salvador, S\u00e3o Paulo, and Rio de Janeiro,\u201d highlighted the Brazilian philosopher.<\/p>\n

In her debut class at MIT, Djamila introduced students to the work and reflections of key Black Brazilian intellectuals essential to understanding the country\u2019s social structure. \u201cI brought some of the central voices of Black Brazilian intellectuals to help students grasp the philosophical, political, and historical dynamics of Brazil,\u201d she wrote, noting her excitement to reconnect in 2026 with some of the students who attended the session.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe class sparked engaging debates, and I left very happy to contribute to MIT initiatives that broaden and deepen perspectives on Brazil. I congratulate the professors for building such powerful and necessary programs. And I wish a great trip to the students\u2014some of whom I\u2019ll have the pleasure of meeting again in my course next semester,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n
