roots
The slave trade in Brazil centuries ago promted the emergence of a "traditional African nation". Afro-Brazilian religions such as Candomblé and Macumba as well as the martial art of Capoeira are based on this. Young people are increasingly searching for their African roots.
Argentinian Mby'a-Guaraní youth youth are attempting to preserve and protect their indigenous history with the help of modern technologies such as the internet and videos.
Life in the middle of a major city: their ancestors were once the undisputed rulers of Tekoa Itakupe. Today, the Guaraní settlement lies on the outskirts of São Paulo and is in danger of being swallowed up by the city. The Guaraní have over 500 years of experience in resisting invaders. Their latest weapon: hip-hop.
