Conhecido como Almirante negro, João Cândido Felisberto foi o lÃder da Revolta da Chibata, ocorrida no Rio de Janeiro em 1910. Figura importante na luta por melhores condições na Marinha, esse herói brasileiro só teve sua anistia concedida em 2008, 39 anos após sua morte. Fruto de ampla pesquisa, esta biografia mostra o lado humano de João Cândido, cuja vida foi marcada por tragédias, perseguições e miséria. Esta obra faz parte da Coleção Retratos do Brasil Negro, coordenada por Vera Lúcia Benedito, mestre e doutora em Sociologia/Estudos Urbanos pela Michigan State University (EUA) e pesquisadora e consultora da Secretaria de Estado da Cultura de São Paulo. O objetivo da Coleção é abordar a vida e a obra de figuras fundamentais da cultura, da polÃtica e da militância negra.
