I was born in 1969 in Rio De Janeiro Brazil. The worst and most brutal year of the military dictatorship. In the 80’s I took to the streets with my face painted in yellow and green to fight for the freedom to vote.
Brazilian democracy is young but strong. The memories of the alternative still fresh in our minds. Now being a U.S. citizen I might have to take it to the streets again with my face painted in red, white and blue.
