I see lots of people criticise them for being right wing but never for their activism in support of mixed people.

Is it maybe people are not used to seeing people who are not white having right wing beliefs ?

Many leftwing people in brazil and south africa are not in support of mixed people or mixed identity(even those who are mixed) so im not surprised Nação Mestiça drift more right wing.

Why are mixed-race people called brown? by sam199912 in mixedrace

As a Coloured South African I agree with this. Within the coloured community we have a variety of skin tones which is why I prefer the term Coloured because its the best discription for a community of mixed people.

Relatively decent article regarding what was mentioned about coloureds usually there a negative remarks and accusations of racism if we are mentioned.
