註釋With the world's fourth largest democracy having elected a far-right, dictatorship-praising president into power, emotions are running high in Brazil; especially among the survivors of the 1964-85 military dictatorship in Brazil, when hundreds were killed or disappeared by a regime bent on wiping out a perceived communist threat ? today's Brazil being at risk of becoming a dictatorship again, with police violence, inhumane prison conditions and human rights abuses having increased dramatically; especially among the LGBT population: 277 LGBT people having been killed in 2018, the highest number since 1980. Social inequality is another topic this book explores, with more than fifty million Brazilians ? nearly 25 percent of the population ? living below the poverty line; having family incomes of no more than $389 per month and only $5.50 a day. Hence this book endeavours to improve human rights, democracy and social equality in Brazil; so that peace and harmony can be manifested in this beautiful country again.
