Where did you get that cruzeiro!!!? Crazy. Don’t tell me they are still using that there.

Unfortunately, often those of us who fight for freedom wind up with the physical short end of the stick, thankfully often these same folks can (if they wanted to) claim the moral high ground…

You may not have all the answers (who does? I don’t!), but you sure as heck know which questions to be asking. How do we, as outsiders, influence the structural inequalities that have been established over a period of decades? How should we?

Thanks for keeping all us thinking. Don’t stop exploring!

In my adult illiteracy of way too many issues, I never imagined communities in Brazil not having drinking water. Thank-you for teaching me something new. I try and imagine what it would be like to run out of clean water on a regular basis. I wonder what that means in terms of added stress levels for families with children, or really anyone for that matter.
