Many slaves were brought to Brazil due to the sugar economy,
which is the primary source of income in Brazil. They also used slaves when the
Portuguese colonizers had discovered gold and diamond deposits in Brazil. Because
of this, Portugal had sent slaves to work on the fields and mines under the Portuguese
colony.

Hey there,
Women have been on the other side of the line since the <em>telegraph</em> was invented, and we served a significant role during the American Civil War and then in both WWl-WWll as well by providing this manual connection service.
Then, just around the 1960's when communication technology was starting to make us all feel a little bit closer to each other around town <em>(or around the country)</em> the working force behind all of it was mostly women.
These women would manually connect callers to each individual phone. So, that very famous saying <em>"Operator, get me..."</em> was really something people would say on their daily basis.
These innovations gave many of American women stable jobs around a growing technology that still continues to evolve.
