Incredible! Always love some more Jon! Wanted to add, regarding how we think of the present and this year feels like a decade. In Brazil, hereβs some of the largest things that happened this year, itβs ludicrous: Military intervention in a favela in Rio; assassination of black LGBT congresswoman Marielle Franco and her driver, Anderson Gomes; World Cup and that temporary Brazilian patriotism and nationalism; the election cycle culminating in the victory of a fascist; and now his decisions for the coming years and his corruption scandals popping up (already!) Brazil has been in some powerful convulsions this year, and while some of these things feel really distant, to those in Rio thatβs every day. We need to be mindful of these things, just because theyβre no longer news, doesnβt mean they arenβt intensely going on for months
