as if that would be a serious thing in a country with a 54% black population and < 10% White population

Almost 50% of Brazil's population self-identifies as white. That being said, a lot of the self-identifying "whites" in Brazil aren't actually really white, but rather "pardos" (meaning castizos or even mestizos), unlike with whites in the US (who are 98% genetically white on average). So Brazil's actual white population is definitely much less than the official almost 50% figure, but it's also very unlikely that it's as low as only 10% (unless you're going by the one drop rule, which is peak autism in my opinion, even more so in such a mixed third world country). True blacks are actually a small minority of less than 10% in Brazil (much like in the US), but of course a lot of self-identified "pardos" have large amounts of black ancestry.

I would be careful with this. Brazil is a case example of what happens when you treat whiteness as a sliding scale instead of something with hard boundaries. In practice, this is a big failure, because even the Whitest parts of the country (i.e Sao Paulo) still have crime levels and poverty that's higher than any European country.

So the 10% figure is correct.

What would be your “hard boundaries”?

Only two Japanese parents can make a Japanese baby.

Therefore, only Two European parents can make someone who is actually white.

If Brazil wants to become a White country, then their immigration needs more actual European stock. But according to wikipedia, the majority of newcomers are Venezuelans and Haitians. with the first European country (Portugual) only showing up in 10th place. That's not good enough, sorry.
