Abstract

http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1414-49802016.00100013 

This article proposes a dialectical reflection on the wave of "rolezinhos" (flash mobs by lower class youths in shopping centers) that took place in Itaquera, São Paulo, and in various Brazilian cities in late 2013 and early 2014, and whose reflections are still present. It places on the agenda the locus of the poor youth in society due to prejudice, stereotypes and stigmas that are still enrooted today.
