Who wrote that? A brazilian, living here? I don't think so, but if he's brazilian he does not follow football, you know why? Because he didn't know that our goalkeeper in the World Cup of 1950 was black (Barbosa), we had black and mixed guys since our first World Cup in 1930 (Araken Patuska, for example), our best player of all time (and probably the best in the history of football) is Pelé, and guess his color?
I have NEVER heard anything bad about Pelé being black or anything like that, and I don't remember anyone saying bad things about Dida, or Romário, or Nilton Santos, or Garrincha, or Djalma Santos, or Jairzinho, or Robinho, or Ronaldinho, or......etc etc etc because of their color.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet.
