Ao vivo e perigoso! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13/5, a partir das 22h.&amp;nbsp; O Museu fica em baixo dos Arcos da Lapa, na esquina de Mem de Sá com Joaquim Silva (em frente de várias obras do Selarón).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Curadoria: Sara Panamby, Raphi Soifer, Filipe Espindola, Bruno Duarte.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-c-Lu8gzv4RI/TZ8ScSfCK7I/AAAAAAAAAXY/ZauR0BZ1xvY/s1600/IMG_0046.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-c-Lu8gzv4RI/TZ8ScSfCK7I/AAAAAAAAAXY/ZauR0BZ1xvY/s640/IMG_0046.JPG" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Tomorrow, on Friday the 13th, we'll be erecting Lapa's  first open-air museum.&amp;nbsp; The performance piece "Museum of Urban  Collages" mixes ritual, poetry, choreography, and urban reform in a new  classificatory action.&amp;nbsp; Among the exhibits - made of combinations of  live bodies and textual/sound environments - are Greasy Spoon  Philosophy, Extemporaneous Migrations, Bohemian Sophisticates, and a  Special English Language Exhibit.&amp;nbsp; Live and dangerous!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;May 13, beginning at 10 pm, under the  Arches of Lapa (at the intersection of Joaquim Silva and Mem de Sá, near  Selarón's tile murals). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Curators:&amp;nbsp; Sara Panamby, Raphi Soifer, Filipe Espindola, Bruno Duarte. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-7270093959526201943?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/7270093959526201943/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=7270093959526201943' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7270093959526201943'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7270093959526201943'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/05/nova-performance-sexta-feira-dia-13new.html' title='nova performance - sexta-feira, dia 13/new performance!'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-c-Lu8gzv4RI/TZ8ScSfCK7I/AAAAAAAAAXY/ZauR0BZ1xvY/s72-c/IMG_0046.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-1202117085310402009</id><published>2011-05-04T15:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-04T15:17:14.417-07:00</updated><title type='text'>BLOCO L!VRE REC!CLATO - sexta-feira, dia 6</title><content type='html'>a partir desta sexta-feira, dia 6, o bloco REC!CLATO vai sair na primeira sexta-feira de cada mês.&amp;nbsp; encontrará na praça cruz vermelha às 19h30 para ensaiar e planejar a rota, e sairá às 22h pelas ruas da lapa.&amp;nbsp; traga sucata pra bater e roupa que pode ficar suja.

voltando do galeão, vi um cara vendendo jornal no meio da rua, apenas com a palavra “morto” e aquela foto do osama bin laden.&amp;nbsp; porra, logo na minha volta dos estates…meu primeiro dia no rio, e todo mundo que encontrei na rua já me perguntando se de fato fui eu quem matou o cara.&amp;nbsp; é bem suspeito, mesmo, eu me ausentar durante algumas semanas e voltar logo depois do bin laden ser morto.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;por aqui, meus amigos estão revoltados com as comemorações no tv, com os manifestantes cantando o hino nacional enrolados na bandeira.&amp;nbsp; por lá, meus amigos são mais revoltados ainda com essa imagem do caráter nacional.&amp;nbsp; essa &lt;a href="http://www.bartleby.com/73/1893.html"&gt;citação&lt;/a&gt; do martin luther king, jr está bombando nas contas de facebook de lá:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-left: 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000019;"&gt;Respondendo violência com violência faz a violência se multiplicar, adicionando escuridão mais profunda à uma noite já desprovida de estrelas.&amp;nbsp; A escuridão não pode expulsar a escuridão; apenas a luz é capaz.&amp;nbsp; O odio não pode expulsar o odio:&amp;nbsp; apenas o amor é capaz.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

aqui, ouço que é sintoma do imperialismo, capitalismo, machismo, protestantismo.&amp;nbsp; e concordo plenamente.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;acho óbvio que a morte do osama não mudará nada, porque há quase 10 anos, o cara já foi fantasma, uma assombração que provocou todo o racismo e xenofobia que minha terra tem de pior, que justificou três guerras e centenas de milhares de mortes.&amp;nbsp; não consigo imaginar que a galera festejando a morte dele sentiria qualquer tipo de catarse decisivo, que com o “inimigo número um” vencido, a maquina de guerra desistiria de buscar os números 2, 3, 4, 5, 1000, junto com quem sabe quantas pessoas que não têm nada a ver, pessoas que, por viverem nos países errados falando as línguas erradas, servem de obstáculos na super-estrada vingativa da “guerra contra terror”.&amp;nbsp; dessa altura racional, não vejo nada a ser festejado em qualquer morte.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;só que eu já escolhi como vai ser minha festa para a morte de kissinger.&amp;nbsp; sei quem eu vou chamar, quais músicas vou tocar, que vou escrever no meu facebook.&amp;nbsp; já posso imaginar como a alegria será geral depois do bush finalmente sumir, e não digo que não farei parte dessa efervescência coletiva.&amp;nbsp; porque apesar de me esforçar para ser uma pessoa boa, não sou nenhum martin luther king, jr.&amp;nbsp; posso até condenar a violência como um todo, mas não sei como evitar sentir prazer na derrota de um inimigo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;de fato, fui eu que matei osama, sim.&amp;nbsp; o matei andando por broadway, procurando tênis, meias e cuecas muito mais baratas do que eu conseguiria comprar no rio.&amp;nbsp; o matei em vários bares de nova iorque, bebendo aquela cerveja forte e amarga que me faz falta por aqui, enquanto fofoquei com meus amigos antes de reclamar sobre o colapso da sociedade civil estadunidense.&amp;nbsp; o matei, e mesmo assim, nem me deram um whiskey de brinde no avião de volta para cá.&amp;nbsp; o matei, fiz minha parte, mas acho que nada mudou.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

on my way back from the airport, i saw a guy selling newspapers in the middle of the street, with only the headline “dead” and that picture of osama bin laden.&amp;nbsp; shit, right when i got back from the states...it was my first day back in rio, and everyone i ran into on the street asked me if in fact i was the one who killed the dude. it really is suspicious: i skipped town for a few weeks, and got back right after bin laden got killed.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;my friends here are disgusted by the celebrations on tv, by the people wrapped in the stars-and-stripes singing the national anthem.&amp;nbsp; over there, my friends are even more disgusted by this image of the national character.&amp;nbsp; this martin luther king, jr &lt;a href="http://www.bartleby.com/73/1893.html"&gt;quote&lt;/a&gt; is exploding on everyone’s facebook profiles:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin-left: 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000019;"&gt;Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;in the states, they say that the celebrations are a new excess of bloodthirstiness.&amp;nbsp; here, i hear that they’re symptoms of imperialism, capitalism, sexism, protestantism.&amp;nbsp; and i agree. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;it’s obvious to me that osama’s death won’t change anything, because for almost ten years, he’s been a phantom. he’s haunted us, provoking all the worst racism and xenophobia that my country has to show, which we’ve used to justify three wars and hundreds of thousands of deaths.&amp;nbsp; i can’t imagine that the folks celebrating his death will feel any sort of definitive catharsis, that with “enemy number one” defeated, the war machine will decide not to go after enemies number 2, 3, 4, 5, 1000, along with who knows how many people who don’t have anything to do with it, who live in the wrong countries and speak the wrong languages, and therefore serve as obstacles on the vengeful super-highway of the "war on terror.”&amp;nbsp; from this rational perspective, i don’t see anything to be celebrated in any death.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;except that i’ve already chosen what my party is going to be like when kissinger dies.&amp;nbsp; i know who i’m going to call, what songs i’m going to play, what i’m going to write on my facebook wall.&amp;nbsp; i can already imagine how everyone will be overjoyed when bush finally kicks it, and i can’t say that i won’t be a part of that collective effervescence.&amp;nbsp; because in spite of trying very hard to be a good person, i’m no mlk.&amp;nbsp; i can go so far as condemning violence as a whole, but i don’t know how to avoid feeling pleasure in an enemy’s defeat.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;yeah, i killed osama.&amp;nbsp; i killed him walking down broadway, looking for sneakers, socks, and boxers that are much cheaper than anything i could find in rio. i killed him in bars all around new york, drinking the strong, bitter beer that i miss over here, while i gossiped with my friends before complaining about the collapse of american civil society.&amp;nbsp; i killed him, but they didn’t even give me a free shot of whiskey on the plane ride back.&amp;nbsp; i killed him, i did my part, but i don’t think anything’s changed.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-9088437405585976393?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/9088437405585976393/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=9088437405585976393' title='2 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/9088437405585976393'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/9088437405585976393'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/05/bin-laden-etc-portuguesenglish.html' title='bin laden, etc. (português/english)'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Hp_DNECvvnU/TcAkIr7ZrqI/AAAAAAAAAYE/YfoqhRRY51c/s72-c/IMG_0186.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-6473436064491792092</id><published>2011-04-22T07:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-22T07:40:17.769-07:00</updated><title type='text'>tuesday, april 26 - live in nyc!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;if anyone's reading this in new york - and i'm not staying at your house - my singer/songwriter incarnation will be performing in &lt;a href="http://www.johnleo.net/tinydangerousfun.php"&gt;tinydangerousfun!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;a wicked little brooklyn cabaret, on tuesday, april 26.&amp;nbsp;

regardless, i wound up not doing anything of the sort, always losing myself in happy reunions or in isolating desperation while in the states.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;now that i’ve come to spend a couple weeks here, i want to register something about these returns, both for the familiar sense – like the beautiful dinner with 10 much-loved people in chinatown on my first night – and for the strange sense of exclusion.&amp;nbsp; during the first three hours i spent in the country, watching cnn in the early morning in the miami airport, i felt that i had lost a place within this society and its news cycle divorced from any humanity...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i’ll start here just with my arrival, and with the two fights that i almost wound up getting into before the plane had even taken off from rio.&amp;nbsp; two extremely archetypal or stereotypical examples of my "fellow americans" reminded me of the worst that my country projects into the world.&amp;nbsp; the first was a 50-something guy behind me in the line to get on the plane, who didn’t understand that when the flight attendant called for “grupo quatro” to board, she was talking about the very same “group four” that he belonged to.&amp;nbsp; this is fine, except for the fact that this dude has been living in rio for four years.&amp;nbsp; even with this total fault of understanding of what’s going on around him, though, he didn’t hesitate to tell me that he thinks that brasil is an uninteresting place.&amp;nbsp; “if it didn’t have beaches,” he said, “rio wouldn’t have anything to offer.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i didn’t want to start anything, so i just stopped responding, and fortunately, the line started to move just then.&amp;nbsp; but really, are you fucking serious?&amp;nbsp; i’m a vegetarian, but i don’t criticize steakhouses based on their potato salad, because i get that what they have to offer isn’t part of my experience, given that i don’t have the tools or the appetite to participate.&amp;nbsp; if you came to rio just to enjoy the beach at barra da tijuca (the miami beach-style hell of highrises and big car culture where this dude lives) without learning anything else of the language or the culture, that’s your problem.&amp;nbsp; but please have the humility to be honest about your ignorance.&amp;nbsp; this cultural arrogance, which unfortunately strikes me as very american, makes me sick.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;when i got to my seat, i started to talk to the guy sitting next to me, a doughy blond 40-something dude.&amp;nbsp; he speaks a little portuguese, and he’s in brasil doing some sort of “development” work, which brings him from rio and são paulo to cuiabá, a city in the southern amazon where he must be cutting down the forest to make space for asphalt highways or soy plantations.&amp;nbsp; he likes brasil, and he likes its international character, which he recently saw in evidence at a gun show in rio...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;at that moment, i hid myself behind my piauí magazine (sort of like the new yorker) and turned on my ipod:&amp;nbsp; totems of my voluntary participation in the “sophisticated” side of globalization, but which prove very helpful at times like these.&amp;nbsp; after so many years of local-flavored massacres, rio just suffered its first case of “first-world” violence with the school shooting in realengo that killed twelve students, and you’re having fun at a local gun show?&amp;nbsp; sorry, we don’t have anything else to talk about...in other circumstances, i’d even start the fight, but with 9 hours stuck next to this guy with no way out, i couldn’t, and i definitely didn't want to listen to more logic from someone who bears this cross of “developing” the world without understand shit about what that means.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i’m already off the plane and out of the airports.&amp;nbsp; i’ve walked down the streets and talked with my gang of good guys, friends who work with education and resistance, who know how to talk and criticize and sing.&amp;nbsp; i want to dedicate more space to them, and to this side of the country that i still call my own.&amp;nbsp; but i think it’s fundamental to remember, from the very beginning of my trip back to this land of mine, who the “normal folks” are.&amp;nbsp; and they’re all around us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-7375965884474618937?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/7375965884474618937/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=7375965884474618937' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7375965884474618937'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7375965884474618937'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/04/gringolandia-parte-1part-1.html' title='gringolândia: parte 1/part 1 (bilingual/bilingue!)'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AVy3LALGjOc/Tahy5y3c3rI/AAAAAAAAAX8/XgLKl8rcaWg/s72-c/jefferson.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-5042415402141704501</id><published>2011-04-12T04:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-12T04:40:32.047-07:00</updated><title type='text'>confessions for obama - english text</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;in anticipation of my upcoming visit to gringolândia, here's the translation of my speech for obama a few weeks ago, performed with sara panamby.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-wcv-5fAlT9I/TYbIovm2KpI/AAAAAAAAAWY/gN6eBOFkATU/s1600/IMG_0168.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em;

i'm american, and i'd like to talk to you.&amp;nbsp; my  president obama was afraid of coming to give a speech at cinelândia; he  preferred to hide over there, inside the theatro municipal. since i'm  not afraid of the brasilian people, i came here to give a speech in his  place.&amp;nbsp; while he talks about cooperation and economic growth and the  power of hope and whatever, i'd like to send a few personal messages  from the united states, and confesses a few things that have been  bothering me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;look:&amp;nbsp;  we american masturbate a lot.&amp;nbsp; all of us, but especially the  republicans, because they're afraid of sex.&amp;nbsp; democrats like obama are  afraid of everything.&amp;nbsp; democrats like obama are afraid of masturbating,  of farting, of ending the wars that the republicans started, of  appearing in public in latin america, or of doing anything that the  republicans might not like.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;we  americans are scared of losing our houses to the forces of the market,  or of losing our neighborhood to people with brown skin:&amp;nbsp; arabs,  mexicans, muslims, latinos, presidents, terrorists.&amp;nbsp; we're scared of  guns, and we're scared of being without guns.&amp;nbsp; we're scared of fat,  scared of sugar, scared of nipples in general, and of janet jackson's  nipples specifically.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;look:&amp;nbsp;  the story that textbooks in the united states label the amazon as  american territory is just an urban legend.&amp;nbsp; that's because the majority  of north americans don't know where the amazon is, and the majority  that know where it is don't care, and those that know and care think  it's much more interesting to make a profit there than to administrate  it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i  confess that occasionally we feel guilty for paying for so much  destruction in the amazon.&amp;nbsp; but you have to understand how nice it is to  drive an enormous car to a steakhouse and eat brasilian fillet mignon.&amp;nbsp;  your meat is tastier and much cheaper than ours.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;but let me confess a few things before i go back to facebook. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;we americans aren't connected to what's going on in latin america, because we're connected to facebook.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;we americans aren't connected to the middle east because we're connected to our iphones.&amp;nbsp; and because we're afraid of arabs and muslims, without knowing how to understand the difference between these two categories.&amp;nbsp; we americans aren't connected to what happens in our own cities because more than 80% of the population has cable tv, and because we're afraid of people who live in cities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;we americans are afraid of the long term.&amp;nbsp; we americans have a very short memory, shorter than yours.&amp;nbsp; we have a shorter memory than yours, and bigger houses and cars, and obviously all of this has a connection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;the size of ours cars and houses and television sets and ipads and personal debts helps us not to care about what's being done in the outside world or inside our prisons.&amp;nbsp; this is not a national characteristic; rather, it's a function of the size of our stuff.&amp;nbsp; i confess that as the cars and television sets continue to grow in brasil, i see the same possibility here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;we americans are afraid of burqas and afraid of women.&amp;nbsp; we're afraid of old people.&amp;nbsp; we're afraid of you.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of the batteries in my megaphone running out.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid that the petroleum will run out and i won't be able to take an airplane to see my family.&amp;nbsp; during my last visit to the united states, the airline bumped me and put me in business class the next day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i'm afraid of never traveling in business class again.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of all privileges disappearing.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid that the strategies that i've developed throughout my life might not work anymore if there's a real revolution.&amp;nbsp; i'm so afraid of institutions that i can't manage to think of how to get out of them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i'm addicted to the new york times, but not because i believe it.&amp;nbsp; i know it's lying all the time, but its tone is so familiar.&amp;nbsp; i feel at home, i feel like i'm talking with old friends, with people i know who understand me and understand my life.&amp;nbsp; they might not agree with me, but they treat me with respect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that i think that obama is a huge coward.&amp;nbsp; bush always made the first decision that sprang into his mind, or that was given to him by his dad or his vice-president or whatever.&amp;nbsp; meanwhile, obama doesn't make a single decision without consulting the democrats, the republicans, the industrialists, the big business owners. and none of these people like him, mostly because he's black, and even so, he does everything he can to please them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;did you know that the majority of americans are afraid of clowns?&amp;nbsp; that's true, and that's why while you elect &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiririca"&gt;tiririca&lt;/a&gt;, we elect tyrants and cowards.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that i grew up believing in american democracy.&amp;nbsp; i confess that i think baseball is a lot prettier than soccer. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that buying anything has always seemed therapeutic to me.&amp;nbsp; i confess that i always root for the blond guys in war films.&amp;nbsp; i confess that i can't manage to leave the house in the morning without eating bacon and scrambled eggs.&amp;nbsp; i confess that some of these confessions are lies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that the phrase "yankees go home" makes me sad.&amp;nbsp; i confess that that's as much because i root against a baseball team called the yankees than anything else. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that i've used my passport to avoid problems with cops, flight attendants, waiters, and soldiers.&amp;nbsp; i confess that, living over here, i miss the beer and the sandwiches from over there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that bush's daughter studied at the same college i did.&amp;nbsp; i confess that i pay taxes in the united states that pay for various wars.&amp;nbsp; i confess that, because i have less money than my parents, i pay a higher percentage of taxes.&amp;nbsp; i confess that i prefer to forget about this than to try and change the situation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i'm afraid of money.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of not having money.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid that the dollar will never again be worth more than the real. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i'm afraid of being found out.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of not being understood.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of you being afraid of me.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of saying something banal or predictable.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of speaking portuguese in public, so i'm switching to english.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;when  i was in 4th grade, i choked on the soup i was eating for lunch.&amp;nbsp; i ran  out of the classroom and threw up all over the hallway.&amp;nbsp; that year was  the first time the united states attacked iraq, and i stood on the  playground with a sign that i’d made that said “no blood for oil.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i’m  afraid that the size of the house i grew up in might determine how  effective i can be in making a difference.&amp;nbsp; i’m afraid that no one can  understand what i’m saying, but i’m more afraid of the vídeo running  out.&amp;nbsp; i’m afraid of losing my passport.&amp;nbsp; i’m afraid of being found out.&amp;nbsp;  i’m afraid of television.&amp;nbsp; i’m afraid when i stand in line in  immigration that they won’t let me in.&amp;nbsp; i’m afraid of never doing  anything courageous.&amp;nbsp; i’m afraid of never doing anything heroic.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i'm afraid of leaving facebook and being forgotten by the world.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of never leaving facebook and of forgetting myself.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of nipples in general, and of my nipples specifically.&amp;nbsp; i'm afraid of saying the wrong thing in the wrong language while sleeping next to the wrong person.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that i voted for that guy inside the theatro municipal.&amp;nbsp; and i confess that when he was elected, i was really hopeful. i imagined that he could do a lot of things differently.&amp;nbsp; i thought that, at the very least, he would close the concentration camp at guantanamo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that i'm so ashamed of coming from a country that maintains concentration camps that my shame often surpasses and overshadows my conscientiousness about the people imprisoned there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that i voted for obama because i was afraid of a new war in iran,&amp;nbsp; and now we have a new war in libya.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i confess that i voted for obama thinking that he would help the world forget about bush.&amp;nbsp;

sou norte-americano, e queria falar com vocês.&amp;nbsp; meu presidente obama teve medo de vir para cinelândia e fazer um discurso; ele preferiu se esconder ali dentro do theatro municipal.&amp;nbsp; como eu não tenho medo do povão brasileiro, vim aqui para fazer um discurso no lugar dele.&amp;nbsp; enquanto ele fala de cooperação e crescimento econômico e o poder de esperança e seja o que for, eu queria mandar alguns recados pessoais dos estados unidos, e confessar algumas coisas que estavam me perturbando.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;olhá só:&amp;nbsp; nós norte-americanos masturbamos muito.&amp;nbsp; todos nós, mas principalmente os republicanos, pois eles têm medo de sexo.&amp;nbsp; os democratas como obama têm medo de tudo.&amp;nbsp; os democratas como obama têm medo de masturbar, de peidar, de acabar com as guerras que os republicanos começaram, de aparecer em público na america latina, ou de fazer qualquer coisa que poderia ser mal-vista pelos republicanos.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;nós norte-americanos temos medo de perder a casa às forcas mercadológicas, ou de perder o bairro com a chegada de gente com pele marrom:&amp;nbsp; árabes, mexicanos, muçulmanos, latinos, presidentes, terroristas.&amp;nbsp; temos medo de armas de fogo, e medo de ficar sem armas de fogo.&amp;nbsp; temos medo de gordura, medo de açúcar, medo dos mamilos em geral e dos mamilos de janet jackson especificamente. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;olha só:&amp;nbsp; aquela história dos livros escolares nos estados unidos marcar a amazônia como território norte-americano não passa de uma lenda urbana. isso porque a maioria dos norte-americanos não sabe onde fica a amazônia, e a maioria que sabe onde fica não se importa, e os que sabem e se importam acham muito mais interessante lucrar com aquilo do que administrar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;confesso que, de vez em quando, sentimos até culpados por bancar tanta destruição na amazônia. mas vocês tem que entender como é bom dirigir um carro enorme para uma churrascaria e comer um filé mignon brasileiro.&amp;nbsp; a carne de vocês é mais gostosa e muito mais barata.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;mas deixa eu te confessar algumas coisas antes de voltar para facebook.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;nós norte-americanos no que passa na america latina, porque estamos ligados no facebook.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;nós norte-americanos não estamos ligados no oriente médio porque estamos ligados em nossos iphones.&amp;nbsp;

nós-norte-americanos temos uma memória muito curta, mais curta que a sua.&amp;nbsp; temos uma memória mais curta que a sua, e carros e casas muito maiores, e é claro que tudo isso tem uma ligação.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;o tamanho dos nossos carros e casas e televisores e ipads e dividas pessoais nos ajuda a não se importar com o que esteja sendo feito no mundo afora ou dentro dos nossos presídios.&amp;nbsp;

temos medo de idosos.&amp;nbsp; temos medo de você.&amp;nbsp; tenho medo das pilhas do megafone acabarem.&amp;nbsp; tenho medo do petróleo acabar e de eu não poder mais pegar um avião para visitar minha família. na minha última visita aos estados unidos, a companhia aérea cancelou minha passagem, e me colocou na classe executiva no próximo dia.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;tenho medo de nunca mais viajar na classe executiva.&amp;nbsp; tenho medo de todos os privilégios sumirem.&amp;nbsp; tenho medo que as estratégias que desenvolvi ao longo da minha vida poderiam começar a não darem mais certo se houver uma verdadeira revolução.&amp;nbsp; tenho tanto medo das instituições que eu não consigo pensar em como sair delas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;estou viciado no new york times, mas não é porque eu confio nele.&amp;nbsp; sei que ele está sempre mentindo, mas o tom dele é muito familiar.&amp;nbsp; eu me sinto em casa, sinto que estou falando com velhos amigos, com pessoas conhecidas que me entendem, que entendem minha vida, que podem até não concordar comigo, mas que me tratam com respeito.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;confesso que eu acho obama um enorme covarde.&amp;nbsp; o bush sempre tomou a primeira decisao que lhe veio a cabeça, ou que foi dada a ele pelo pai, pelo vice, seja como for.&amp;nbsp; enquanto isso, obama não toma nenhuma decisão sem consultar os democratas, os republicanos, os industrialistas, os grandes empresários, e nenhuma dessas pessoas gosta dele, a maioria por ele ser negro, e ele faz de tudo para agradar los mesmos assim.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;sabia que a maioria dos norte-americanos tem medo de palhaço?&amp;nbsp; é verdade, e é por isso que enquanto vocês elegem tiririca, nos elegemos tirános e covardes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;mas olha só – eu não culpo os estados unidos para tudo que tem de errado no mundo, até porque eu sou de lá.&amp;nbsp; tô ligado naquela situação, sei como é que é, etc e tal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;mas é o seguinte:&amp;nbsp; tem que anotar o que está acontecendo, tá ligado?&amp;nbsp; deixo eu te dar um exemplo:&amp;nbsp; a reforma ortográfica da língua portuguesa foi uma conspiração norte-americana.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;não sabia, não?&amp;nbsp; olha – dia 1 de janeiro de 2009, a reforma entrou em vigor, e a palavra “ideia” perdeu o acento.&amp;nbsp; e aí 19 dias depois, dia 20 de janeiro, obama tomou posse.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;não entendeu?&amp;nbsp; a lógica é a mesma porque a métrica é a mesma:&amp;nbsp; “ideia”.&amp;nbsp; “obama”.&amp;nbsp; se não tivesse tirado o acento da primeira palavra, teria que colocar um acento na segunda.&amp;nbsp; e isso não dá.&amp;nbsp; não tem acentos na língua inglesa.&amp;nbsp; aí tiraram o acento da palavra ideia, que tinha ficado lá durante séculos.&amp;nbsp; tiraram o trema da língua portuguesa.&amp;nbsp; são essas as conseqüências do império.&amp;nbsp; alias, as consekencias, já que não tem mais trema.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;confesso que eu cresci acreditando na democracia norte-americana.&amp;nbsp; confesso que acho beisbol muito mais bonito que futebol.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;confesso que comprar qualquer coisa sempre me parecia terapêutico.&amp;nbsp; confesso que sempre torço para os loiros nos filmes de guerra. confesso que não consigo sair de casa de manhã sem comer bacon com ovos mexidos.&amp;nbsp; confesso que algumas dessas confissões são mentiras.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;confesso que a frase “yankees go home” me deixa triste.&amp;nbsp; confesso que isso é tanto por eu torcer contra o time de beisbol chamado yankees do que qualquer outra coisa.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;confesso que já usei meu passaporte para evitar problemas com policiais, aeromoças, garçons e soldados.&amp;nbsp; confesso que, morando aqui, sinto falta da cerveja e dos sanduíches de lá.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;confesso que a filha do bush estudou na mesma faculdade que eu.&amp;nbsp; confesso que eu pago impostos nos estados unidos que bancam várias guerras.&amp;nbsp; confesso que, por ter menos grana dos meus pais, pago uma porcentagem mais alta.&amp;nbsp; confesso que prefiro esquecer disso do que tentar mudar a situação.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;tenho medo de dinheiro.&amp;nbsp;

As an American who's not afraid of Brazilians, I will be at Cinelândia this Sunday, starting at 2 pm in front of Cinema Odeon, reciting confessions sent by&amp;nbsp; Americans to Brazilians.&amp;nbsp;

pode ser minha gringuice, e do fato de eu vir de um lugar onde nunca se dança na rua.&amp;nbsp; mas fico encantado pela energia da aglomeração, pelos encontros inesperados que a cidade providencia, e pela possibilidade constante de criar uma nova surrealidade na rua.&amp;nbsp; sexta-feira, por exemplo, tem bloco recicle na lapa...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;

margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i've wanted to write more about carnaval and the street in the run-up to the craziness (it starts friday), but i've been slaving over two term papers that need to get written before i work out this year's mask-and-glitter combination.&amp;nbsp; here's a snapshot, though... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;several friends – mostly girls, and mostly cariocas (rio natives) – have told me that they’re fed up with carnaval.&amp;nbsp; they say it’s too controlled and tôo commercial, and that it recent years, it’s mostly served to increase and advertise the strength of the “shock of order” urban reforms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i’m hip to the problems, and i'm worried about the ever-increasing "order" and commercialization of carnaval (this carnaval will be my fifth, so i have a certain critical perspective, however limited).&amp;nbsp; still, i get completely worked up for carnaval.&amp;nbsp; it could stem from my gringo-ness, and the fact that i come from a place where no one ever dances in the street. but i’m enchanted by the energy of the crowds, by the unexpected encounters that the city provides, and by the Constant possibility of creating a new surreality on the street.&amp;nbsp; this friday, for example, there will be a recycled instruments procession in lapa...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;yesterday, a friend sent me this (in portuguese):&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;a href="http://carnavalnomade.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://carnavalnomade.blogspot.com&lt;/a&gt;

margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;it's the "nomadic carnaval" manifesto, which proposes, among other things, spreading blocos (street processions) more evenly throughout the city; breaking off from major blocos to start improvised ones; knowing when to break with tradition to start something new; "trading" neighborhoods, so that different crowds get to know different blocos; and, most importantly, refusing to register with city hall, which essentially obliges blocos to get corporate sponsors to pay off the massive licensing fees.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;i think it could go farther, but i agree completely.&amp;nbsp;

the cops threatened&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;to arrest them if they took pictures of what was going on.&amp;nbsp; at the same time, new research shows that rio de janeiro is now the most expensive city in the americas, surpassing new york.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;

but it will be very interesting to see globo continue to play with its own history while march 31, 2014 (the 50&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; anniversary of the coup) approaches.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;

they're female trickster spirits, very connected to the streets and to human appetites (especially for alcohol, smoke, and sex).&amp;nbsp; they represent exactly the kind of "malandragem" (trickery, mischief, etc) that's being cleaned up these days, so it seemed only fair to give them a research study of their own.&amp;nbsp;

&lt;/span&gt;hoje, fui para leonardo da vinci, minha livraria predileta no rio, para pesquisar umbanda e candomblé, temas muito presentes na performance.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;procurei em todas as estantes de livros religiosos, e achei até um guia escrito especificamente para brasileiros praticantes de wicca, mas nada sobre candomblé nem umbanda.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;perguntei uma das funcionários, que riu e disse que todos aqueles livros foram na outra sala, na seção de antropologia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;como é que é?&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;

&lt;/span&gt;mas eu entendi o ato de relegar os livros para antropologia como negar o papel das práticas afro-brasileiras como verdadeiras fés vivas; enquanto estejam classificados apenas como objetos de estudo, a importância deles na atualidade é negado.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;cult é foda. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;sexta-feira à noite, vamos a lapa para, entre outras coisas, tirar dos cults o direito de intelectualizar, dando as ferramentas e espaço de pesquisa para os espíritos. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;saravá!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-1724604284741378683?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/1724604284741378683/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=1724604284741378683' title='2 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/1724604284741378683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/1724604284741378683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/01/classificacao.html' title='classificação'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-7339381281656919652</id><published>2011-01-30T06:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-30T06:42:59.208-08:00</updated><title type='text'>sucesso!/success!</title><content type='html'>&lt;style&gt;&lt;!-- /* Font Definitions */@font-face {font-family:Arial;

    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;eu estava de bobeira no bar do cachaça (pra variar), discutindo com um amigo franco-brasileiro as possibilidades de escrever poesia em uma língua não-nativa.&amp;nbsp; (tenho um novo rap em construção, que pretendo apresentar pela primeira vez essa quinta, no ratos di versos, na lapa).&amp;nbsp; falamos sobre caetano, porque nos cults parecemos incapazes de não mencionar caetano pelo menos uma vez a cada noitada, e depois mencionei gogol bordello, a banda cigana-punk de nova iorque, cujo cantor e compositor trabalha em um inglês exageradamente russificado, dando a musica um sentido de estrangeirismo, um personagem de viajante-cigano-sábio, e um rock extremamente próprio e contagioso.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;nem cinco minutos depois, hütz – o tal cantor e compositor – apareceu de repente, logo ali no cachaça.&amp;nbsp; lapa, por mais gentrificada e "limpa" que seja, ainda tem esses poderes.&amp;nbsp; hütz passou basicamente despercebido pelo bar, apesar de vários das pessoas lá provavelmente conhecerem suas músicas.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; depois, ele ficou rodando pelas ruas do bairro, parando para conversar de vez em quando, olhar as aglomerações ou assistir um grupo de forró-sapateado que apresentava a cada esquina.&amp;nbsp; fui conversar com ele depois de alguns minutos, e descobri que é recém-voltado ao rio, e que lapa é sua noitada predileta.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;estar ligado com a rua parece o aposto de sucesso e celebridade que ouço todo dia e que vejo na internet e na tv.&amp;nbsp; nessa conceicão, os grandes nomes se mostram nas manchetes, mas depois deveriam se escondem nos lugares mais restritos, ou pelo menos (no caso do rio) nas calçadas do leblon, para serem fotografados e depois desaparecer. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;os rostos de huck e angélica nos olham de toda banca de jornal, marcando a comemoração de “bom-mocismo” pela veja, mas eles devem estar muito bem afastados do povão, para não ter suas vidas ou seus relógios colocados em perigo. enquanto isso, é muito bom ver um grande artista na lapa, na rua, na dele.&amp;nbsp; sucesso não é programas na tv e acesso limitado na vida real.&amp;nbsp; sucesso é a rua, porra.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

(i have a new rap under construction that i'm  planning to present for the first time this thursday, at ratos di versos).&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; we discussed caetano, because intellectual types seem  incapable of not mentioning caetano at least once every night out.&amp;nbsp;  afterwards, i brought up gogol bordello, the gypsy punk band from new  york, whose lead singer and composer works in an exaggeratedly russianized english, giving the music a sense of foreignness, a traveler-gypsy-wise man character, and a rock that's totally his own and completely contagious.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;less than five minutes later, hütz - the singer and writer i had just been  talking about - suddenly appeared at cachaça.&amp;nbsp; lapa still has these  powers, no matter how gentrified and "cleaned up" it's becoming. the  crowd at the bar didn't seem to notice hütz, even though the hipster types  there probably know his music.&amp;nbsp; afterwards, he walked around the  neighborhood, stopping to talk once in a while, check out the crowds, or  watch a forró-tap dancing group that was performing on the corner.&amp;nbsp; i talked with him for a few minutes, and found out he's recently  returned to rio, and that lapa is his preferred night out.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&lt;i&gt;being connected to the street seems like the opposite of the success and celebrity that i hear about and see on the internet  and on tv every day.&amp;nbsp; in this conception, the big names show themselves  in headlines, but afterwards are supposed to hide out in the most  restricted places, or at least (in the case of rio) on the sidewalks of  leblon, to be photographed and then disappear.&amp;nbsp; the smug faces of huck  and angélica look at us from every newspaper stand, but they must be  very well separated from the masses, so as not to have their lives or  their expensive watches put in danger.&amp;nbsp; meanwhile, it's very good to see  a great artist in lapa, on the street, minding his own.&amp;nbsp; sucess isn't  programs on tv and limited access in real life. success is the fucking street.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-7339381281656919652?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/7339381281656919652/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=7339381281656919652' title='3 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7339381281656919652'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7339381281656919652'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/01/sucessosuccess.html' title='sucesso!/success!'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TUVyWuhJ1DI/AAAAAAAAARI/rzwr4aNtGk0/s72-c/capa-380.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-3878475257339836402</id><published>2011-01-28T04:51:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-28T07:29:44.456-08:00</updated><title type='text'>the taste of place</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;style&gt;&lt;!-- /* Font Definitions */@font-face {font-family:Arial;

    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;on my way back from the beach today, i drank a &lt;i&gt;guaraná natural&lt;/i&gt; (sort of a bug juice made from the high-caffeine &lt;i&gt;guaraná&lt;/i&gt; berry) in one of the endless juice shops in ipanema.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; it was way too sweet, as usual, but it was also a lot much had a much stronger flavor than normal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; it made me remember the sensation of drinking &lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt;guaraná&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/i&gt; eight or nine years ago, during my first visits to brasil.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; at the time, the flavor was still a novelty for me, something exotic that reminded me how far i was from home.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; the sensation wasn’t just of refreshing myself; drinking &lt;i&gt;guaraná&lt;/i&gt; felt like a kind of communion, a way of feeling the place i was through taste.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; it felt like i was drinking brasil.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

&lt;i&gt;sonhos&lt;/i&gt; (deep-fried donuts) filled with &lt;i&gt;doce de leite&lt;/i&gt; and heart-of-palm turnovers at bakeries; grilled cheese skewers and &lt;i&gt;acarajé &lt;/i&gt;(deep-fried bean cakes, hold the shrimp) in the street; guaraná and iced &lt;i&gt;mate &lt;/i&gt;tea anytime and anywhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; every time i left the house was an opportunity to taste this new and enchanting place, to smell, sample, and digest the country.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; i developed an arrival ritual as soon as i landed at galeão airport:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; i would sit in a dingy airport café with a can of &lt;i&gt;guaraná antárctica&lt;/i&gt; (a soda made from the same berry), sipping the sensation of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;localness while my eyes absorbed the different colors of clothes and of skin, and my ears re-acclimated themselves to a language that i more or less understood, but was very far from calling my own.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; for the rest of the visit, my tastebuds were on high alert, and i was constantly in search of new sense experiences.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; it was only during my fourth visit to the country, when i came in on a two-year visa, that i stopped eating like a tourist, that i finally understood that the &lt;i&gt;sonhos&lt;/i&gt; at the corner bakery weren’t going anywhere, and that there flavor would always be available to me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;these days, &lt;i&gt;guaraná natural&lt;/i&gt; is just another junky soft drink that i drink on the beach, or any other place where i can’t buy seltzer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;i&gt;sonhos&lt;/i&gt; are an occasional breakfast option for when i leave the house too early in the morning or feel an uncontrollable craving for &lt;i&gt;doce de leite.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/i&gt;on my visits back to the united states, though, i’ve gained the tendency of eating uncontrollably, going after indian, chinese, mexican, and thai food; everything that’s hard to find good or cheap examples of in rio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; i tend to gain about a half-pound every day when i’m in the states, a phenomenon i call the “first-world 15.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; and it’s by no means limited to high cuisine or “ethnic” restaurants.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; the last time i got to new york, i left the apartment i was staying in, stopped at the first newspaper stand, and bought a pack of cool ranch doritos, which i adored in fifth grade but hadn’t bought since high school.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; (it may be that we have cool ranch doritos in brasil; i honestly wouldn’t know, since i’m usually a bit more hippy-ish in my eating habits).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; at that moment in new york, though, cool ranch was the only thing i wanted to eat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; i stood on a corner in chinatown munching my chips and drinking a ginger ale, swallowing the sensation of being right there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; it didn’t matter if it actually tasted good:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; what i wanted was to taste the united states, in all its artificial glory.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-3878475257339836402?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/3878475257339836402/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=3878475257339836402' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/3878475257339836402'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/3878475257339836402'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/01/taste-of-place.html' title='the taste of place'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TUK6zhnn9JI/AAAAAAAAARE/40EBWYouj4c/s72-c/IMG_0331.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-8261666652451627654</id><published>2011-01-27T19:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-28T04:44:41.773-08:00</updated><title type='text'>o sabor do lugar</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;style&gt;&lt;!-- /* Font Definitions */@font-face {font-family:Arial;

a sensação não era apenas de me refrescar, e sim de participar em um tipo de comunhão, de sentir o lugar onde eu estava através de sabor:&amp;nbsp; de beber o brasil.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;nas minhas primeiras visitas ao brasil, apaixonado com tantos sabores e possibilidades diferentes, enchi a minha cara com tudo que não era conhecido:&amp;nbsp; sonhos de doce de leite e pasteis de palmito nas padarias, queijo coalho e acarajé nas ruas, guaraná e mate em qualquer lugar e a qualquer hora.&amp;nbsp; cada vez que eu saí de casa era uma oportunidade de saborear esse lugar novo e encantador, de cheirar, experimentar, e digerir o país.&amp;nbsp; meu ritual, logo na chegada pro galeão, foi sentar em um lanchonete do aeroporto com uma lata de guaraná antárctica, engolindo uma sensação do local enquanto meus olhos absorveram as diferentes cores de roupa e da pele, e meus ouvidos se re-acostumavam a um idioma mais ou menos conhecido, mais muito longe de ser meu.&amp;nbsp; durante o resto da visita, meus sentidos ficaram sempre alertas,&amp;nbsp; e eu me conduzi sempre em busca de novas experiências sensoriais.&amp;nbsp; foi só na minha quarta visita ao país, quando entrei com um visto de dois anos, que parei de comer como um turista, sabendo que os sonhos da padaria na esquina não iriam para lugar nenhum, e que o sabor deles seria sempre disponível.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TUI7ksVs92I/AAAAAAAAARA/tsK3O8dqoTA/s1600/IMG_0331.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;hoje em dia, o guaraná natural é apenas mais uma besteira que eu bebo na praia, ou em qualquer lugar onde não vende água com gás.&amp;nbsp; os sonhos servem principalmente para cafés de manhã ocasionais, quando saio de casa muito cedo ou sinto uma vontade incontrolável para doce de leite.&amp;nbsp; nas minhas visitas recentes aos estados unidos, porém, ganhei a tendência de comer descontroladamente tudo o que não tem de bom e barato no rio:&amp;nbsp; comida indiana, chinesa, mexicana, tailandesa.&amp;nbsp; tendo a ganhar uns 250 gramas por dia quando estou nos estates, fenômeno que eu chamo de “first world 15” (as 15 libras do primeiro mundo, referente ao “freshman 15,” excesso de peso que os calouros estadunidenses supostamente ganham quando saiam da casa dos pais).&amp;nbsp; e não me limito a alta culinária:&amp;nbsp; a última vez que cheguei em nova iorque, saí do apartamento onde estava ficando, parei na primeira banca de jornal e comprei um pacote de cool ranch doritos, uma besteirinha que eu amava na 5&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt; série, mas que não compro desde o colegial.&amp;nbsp; (pode ser até que tenha esse sabor de doritos no brasil; sinceramente não sei, pois geralmente sou um pouco mais natureba).&amp;nbsp; naquela hora, porém, era a única coisa que quis comer:&amp;nbsp; fiquei parado numa esquina de chinatown, comendo meu doritos, tomando um &lt;i&gt;ginger ale&lt;/i&gt; (refrigerante de gengibre), e engolindo a sensação de estar logo ali.&amp;nbsp; não me importava tanto se era de fato agradável – o que eu queria foi saborear os estados unidos, em toda sua gloriosa artificialidade.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-8261666652451627654?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/8261666652451627654/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=8261666652451627654' title='4 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/8261666652451627654'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/8261666652451627654'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/01/o-sabor-do-lugar.html' title='o sabor do lugar'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TUI7ksVs92I/AAAAAAAAARA/tsK3O8dqoTA/s72-c/IMG_0331.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-9216837327570552577</id><published>2011-01-14T05:09:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-14T05:09:33.337-08:00</updated><title type='text'>negociação cultural</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;

penso cada vez mais em traducão como a base de práticas artísticas.&amp;nbsp; donnie, o professor dessa oficina e um grande ator lá da minha terra, tem falado bastante essa semana em atuação como negociação:&amp;nbsp; entre um ator e outros atores, entre atores e espaço, tempo, e plateia.&amp;nbsp; me encontro dentro de um processo pessoal de negociar entre culturas e entre línguas e linguagens.&amp;nbsp; obviamente, lido com isso cada vez que eu traduzo, mas fica bastante óbvio nas minhas performances, e mesmo nesse blog...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;

talvez seja porque é sempre mais fácil descrever deficiências do que apontar o que faz a gente se apaixonar:&amp;nbsp; posso muito facilmente dar palavras a tudo na sociedade norte-americana que me faz sentir revoltado, mas por mais que consigo falar (durante horas) sobre meu amor para o brasil, não sei apontar um único motivo que explica o porque de eu estar aqui.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;

o que me impede não é a distância geográfica de eu estar no brasil, e sim a distância cultural que me atrapalharia mesmo se eu fosse lá.&amp;nbsp; ou seja, há uma divisão enorme entre os lugares onde eu costumo andar lá (principalmente nova iorque e são francisco) e os interiores.&amp;nbsp; não se trata apenas de opiniões e valores diferentes, e sim de não saber realmente quais são as opiniões e valores do "outro lado".&amp;nbsp; por exemplo, eu sei que metade dos eleitores votou em bush, mas as únicas babacas que eu conheço que fizeram isso são um tio milionário escroto meu, e um jogador de futebol americano que morava comigo durante um tenso primeiro ano da faculdade.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;

imagino também que meu tio e o futeboleiro não conhecem muitos vegetarianos.&amp;nbsp; imagino que talvez tenham ouvido do foucault e deleuze, mas provavelmente não conhecem ninguém que guarda os livros deles em casa.&amp;nbsp;

very uncharacteristically, it is drivel, but worth reading as such: &amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/09/us/politics/09bai.html?hp"&gt;http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/09/us/politics/09bai.html?hp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the idea that, in order to look at what's going on in the states, one needs to find example on both the "left" and the right just doesn't work in this case.&amp;nbsp; first of all, the democratic party is not left-wing, and gabrielle gifford is not even on the more progressive end of the democratic party.&amp;nbsp; i do know people on the left in the states who talk about armed revolution, but they tend to spend most of their time selling newspapers that nobody reads, and they don't own guns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;second, the idea that there's violent discourse in the democratic party that's somehow equivalent to that of the tea party is baseless.&amp;nbsp; matt bai cites a constituent saying that gifford is "dead to me," and tries to compare that to sarah palin putting gifford's district in crosshairs, or sharron angle warning ominously about "second amendment solutions"&amp;nbsp; (though if tea party history is anything to go by, she probably thinks the second amendment applies to search and seizure...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;bai then makes it all worse by lauding john mccain as a champion of civil discourse when he said that obama was a "decent family man" and therefore not an arab.&amp;nbsp; bai is also sure that americans would take up arms against socialism or tyranny.&amp;nbsp; he also compares anti-bush rhetoric with current anti-obama vitriol, which doesn't work:&amp;nbsp; i remember a few folks calling for impeachment and international criminal court prosecution, but nobody in the democratic party or in some pocket of the bruised and battered american left suggesting that bush was the anti-christ, or praying for his death...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i'm listening to "kill your landlord" by the coup as i write this, and don't want to imply that i'm following an anti-censorship post with an anti-free speech post. of course i support the tea party's right to fascistic, bloodthirsty rhetoric,&amp;nbsp; but i don't think the "mainstream" media can keep pretending that, by virture of a two-party system, the [muted, hand-wringing, wishy-washy] anger of the democratic party is somehow comparable to the unceasing calls for blood on the right.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-1883206870867356507?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/1883206870867356507/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=1883206870867356507' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/1883206870867356507'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/1883206870867356507'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2011/01/rhetoric.html' title='rhetoric'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-7043887903433267590</id><published>2010-12-31T05:44:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-01T14:22:07.858-08:00</updated><title type='text'>what's goin' on (part 2)</title><content type='html'>one of things i'm hoping for in 2011 is more free expression.&amp;nbsp; 2010 has been a good year personally for starting to get stuff out on the street and into the weird bloggy, youtube-y ether, but there's a whole lot i've seen and read about lately that has me screaming at the top of my lungs...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after the über-publicized police and army invasions of the complexo do alemão, a group of favelas in rio's north zone which i conspicuously failed to post anything about (there's always next year, right), local cops took things one step further and rounded up 4 funkeiros (singers of funk music, a local subgenre of hip-hop, which m.i.a borrows heavily) for "inciting violence" by singing songs that supposedly glorify drug gangs.&amp;nbsp; mc smith, mc tikão, mc max and mc frank point out that they're singing about the reality of their communities, but the police chief accuses them of working to spread violence throughout rio, and make themselves rich in the process...they're trying to break into the mainstream, she says, by relying on funk's pirate economy.&amp;nbsp; she makes a lot of other arguments that don't make a lot of sense, either.&amp;nbsp; there's a video here, shot by my friend ludmila curi for rio's main paper, just after they were arrested.&amp;nbsp; it's in portuguese, but worth checking out just for the visuals, which tell a lot of the story - it's a great video, especially considering that it was shot for a paper that tends to support any and all police repression.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/%20http://oglobo.globo.com/rio/video/2010/21548/"&gt; http://oglobo.globo.com/rio/video/2010/21548/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ludmila previously made a short documentary about mc smith, one of the funkeiros arrested, and his relationship to music and his community.&amp;nbsp; this one has subtitles - you can find it (and vote for it) by going here and clicking on "grosso calibre":&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://shootingpoverty.org/"&gt;http://shootingpoverty.org/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;meanwhile, in são paulo, a videographer who works with the legendary (and infamous) teatro oficina company has (at least temporarily) &lt;i&gt;lost custody of her 3-year-old son&lt;/i&gt; while a family court judge tries to determine whether or not oficina's work constitutes pornography.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;teatro oficina is known for outlandish, participatory, sexually charged work.&amp;nbsp; they just toured brasil presenting 4 stadium theatre plays for audiences of 2000 people on a giant grant from the national ministry of culture.&lt;span id="goog_1027197306"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="goog_1027197307"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Cobject%20width=%22480%22%20height=%22385%22%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22movie%22%20value=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/fytj6CW5RgQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowFullScreen%22%20value=%22true%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowscriptaccess%22%20value=%22always%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cembed%20src=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/fytj6CW5RgQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US%22%20type=%22application/x-shockwave-flash%22%20allowscriptaccess=%22always%22%20allowfullscreen=%22true%22%20width=%22480%22%20height=%22385%22%3E%3C/embed%3E%3C/object%3E"&gt;&lt;object height="385" width="480"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fytj6CW5RgQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fytj6CW5RgQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it's not really material for 3-year-olds, but the idea that being backstage with actors while his mom was working would constitute child pornography is inherently ludicrous.&amp;nbsp; given that the work is explicitly endorsed and paid for by the brasilian government should be enough to earn it the legal status of High Art.&amp;nbsp; anyway, rio and são paulo - like any other big city - are a whole lot of questionable parenting decisions that nobody's making a fuss about, and rightfully show.&amp;nbsp; i'm always surprised in rio by the number of toddlers who go to bars late at night with their parents and get giddy on coca-cola, or the 4-year-olds wandering around lapa with mommy and daddy at 4 am.&amp;nbsp; but that's obviously not a good reason to take them away from their parents...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in the case of teatro oficina, there's a messy custody battle at the heart of what's going on (the dad, who comes from a rich family, had already lost custody, but is fighting back with his money and connections).&amp;nbsp; but the big question is one of censorship.&amp;nbsp; in terms of freedom of expression, brasil as a country is moving forward by giant leaps and bounds; the idea that the ministry of culture would recognize teatro oficina as a national treasure (which it is) and foot the bill so that as many brasilians as possible could see it is a big deal, and stands in stark contrast to the repression of previous decades.&amp;nbsp; but there are still plenty of individuals and institutions with just enough power - like police chiefs in rio and family court judges in são paulo - to inflict their own dictatorship-era mentality on the rest of society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;meanwhile, back in the states, my friend and comrade-in-arms brian pickett recently had his high school students' work censored by the new york department of education.&amp;nbsp; they wrote a play, based on antigone, protesting budget cuts and school removals, which they were then forbidden to perform on school property.&amp;nbsp; brian's account is here:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/brian-pickett/student-play-censored-for_b_801032.html"&gt;http://www.huffingtonpost.com/brian-pickett/student-play-censored-for_b_801032.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and you can read the script (which takes about 15 minutes) here:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/answer-sheet/school-turnaroundsreform/a-student-play-criticizing-sch.html#more"&gt;http://voices.washingtonpost.com/answer-sheet/school-turnaroundsreform/a-student-play-criticizing-sch.html#more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so that's what up in the world of censorship.&amp;nbsp; i'm hoping 2011 is loud and irreverent, incessantly and unapologetically beautiful.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-7043887903433267590?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/7043887903433267590/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=7043887903433267590' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7043887903433267590'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/7043887903433267590'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/12/whats-goin-on-part-2.html' title='what&apos;s goin&apos;

starting with a slight digression...arianna huffington has a piece here extolling the virtue's of brasil's progress under lula, and the emergence of the “south american” dream:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/arianna-huffington/it-might-be-time-to-rebra_b_800515.html?ref=fb&amp;amp;src=sp"&gt;http://www.huffingtonpost.com/arianna-huffington/it-might-be-time-to-rebra_b_800515.html?ref=fb&amp;amp;src=sp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it's a very surface-level analysis with some notable holes (for example:&amp;nbsp; should we really care about the government’s definition of middle class when it doesn't adjust for family size?&amp;nbsp; and what exactly is going to happen in são paulo and the rest of the country if car consumption keeps going up and infrastructure stays at a standstill?)&amp;nbsp; but overall, i think she has a point:&amp;nbsp; on a macro level, brasil as a country is doing some pretty amazing stuff.&amp;nbsp; it's what i've seen recently on a micro level, of brasil as a society, that's got me a little freaked out.&amp;nbsp; exhibit a:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Cobject%20width=%22480%22%20height=%22385%22%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22movie%22%20value=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/oIiu5va-vg8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowFullScreen%22%20value=%22true%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowscriptaccess%22%20value=%22always%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cembed%20src=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/oIiu5va-vg8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US%22%20type=%22application/x-shockwave-flash%22%20allowscriptaccess=%22always%22%20allowfullscreen=%22true%22%20width=%22480%22%20height=%22385%22%3E%3C/embed%3E%3C/object%3E"&gt;&lt;object height="385" width="480"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oIiu5va-vg8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oIiu5va-vg8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;this video was shot 10 days ago, when 23 poor working families briefly took over an abandoned building in lapa on avenida mem de sá, about 20 minutes away from where i live.&amp;nbsp; it's impossible to say how long the building's been abandoned since the ownership papers have apparently gone missing, but it's been about 20 years.&amp;nbsp; under the brasilian constitution, all property has to serve a "social function".&amp;nbsp; basically, that doesn't mean you can't have an empty guesthouse on your sprawling country estate, but it does mean that if the federal social security administration (the last documented owner of the property on mem de sá) leaves a building abandoned in downtown rio for a couple of decades, it pretty much loses the right to administer it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there's a long process, of course, between squatting in a building and proving that your occupation serves a valid "social function."&amp;nbsp; i don't understand most of the legal details involved, but there are some basic rules that pretty much everybody's clear on.&amp;nbsp; and in the process of forcibly clearing away the squatters and their supporters, the cops managed to break pretty much all of them:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(ALL PHOTOS BY THAÍS MORELLI)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

i wasn't there when the riot cops arrived and started beating everybody up, but none of the dozens of people i talked (including journalists) remembers hearing the police give an order to disperse.&amp;nbsp; apparently, they just moved in with nightsticks and pepper spray.&amp;nbsp; then they decided to break out tear gas and rubber bullets (which they apparently shot into the crowd instead of on the ground, which is what they're supposed to do)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

legally, the riot cops couldn't do what they did, because they're military police officers, rather than federal police.&amp;nbsp; the basic rule is that only federal police can clear occupied buildings, and videos and photos show very clearly that this building was evacuated by military police (who pepper sprayed everyone, including journalists on the sidewalk and little kids in the building...which is also not legal)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

which seriously doesn't make any fucking sense.&amp;nbsp; they also charged protestors, who entered through an open door, with breaking and entering, though photos show that it was the riot cops who did physical damage to the building.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

(a law that "takes") and a &lt;i&gt;lei que não pega&lt;/i&gt; (a law that doesn't).&amp;nbsp; my activist friends tend to categorize most of the 1988 constitution - a really beautiful rebuke to the military dictatorship that explicitly guarantees all sorts of equal rights - as a &lt;i&gt;lei que não pega&lt;/i&gt;.&amp;nbsp; again, i don't really understand the legal complexities of what went down on mem de sá last week, but it's clear that there were a lot of really basic and flagrant violations of what's supposed to happen in situations like this.&amp;nbsp; there is still a reliance on old style policing hereabouts, which means just showing up and beating the shit out of everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;statistically, the folks occupying buildings in big cities are not nearly as much of a force as the people buying cars or refrigerators for the first time, or moving into the "middle class," or finishing up high school.&amp;nbsp; but if dissent continues to be crushed like it was in the bad old days, i don't know how far that upward mobility extends.&amp;nbsp; if material progress is exploding but political progress isn't really moving, can the "south american dream" really be heading in a very different direction from the american dream?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Cobject%20width=%22480%22%20height=%22385%22%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22movie%22%20value=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/ZwCt0YQPn7g?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowFullScreen%22%20value=%22true%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowscriptaccess%22%20value=%22always%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cembed%20src=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/ZwCt0YQPn7g?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US%22%20type=%22application/x-shockwave-flash%22%20allowscriptaccess=%22always%22%20allowfullscreen=%22true%22%20width=%22480%22%20height=%22385%22%3E%3C/embed%3E%3C/object%3E"&gt;&lt;object height="385" width="480"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZwCt0YQPn7g?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZwCt0YQPn7g?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-1910266412709424400?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/1910266412709424400/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=1910266412709424400' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/1910266412709424400'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/1910266412709424400'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/12/whats-goin-on-part-1.html' title='what&apos;s goin&apos;

hip-hop, funk, e samba, teatro do palco e da rua, discurso político do palanque e do boteco.&amp;nbsp; por eu entender muito menos na época, tanto da língua portuguesa quanto da sociedade brasileira, acho que percebi muito menos de certos tipos de tabu e auto-censura que hoje vejo mais facilmente.&amp;nbsp; mesmo assim, ao longo do tempo que tenho passado no brasil, sempre fiquei impressionado com a variedade não apenas das opiniões que eu ouvi, mas com a diversidade de expressão que aqui existe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;porém...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;fico muito nervoso com os casos de censura pesada surgindo por aqui atualmente, principalmente entre são paulo e rio de janeiro,&amp;nbsp; lugares sempre dados como o eixo cultural do país.&amp;nbsp; nem falo da desocupação na segunda-feira:&amp;nbsp; por mais que seja um exemplo muito óbvio de censura &lt;i&gt;social&lt;/i&gt;, vejo a violência e irregularidade da ação policial como padrão infelizmente previsível.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;mas na quarta-feira, quatro cantores do complexo do alemão foram presos por cantar.&amp;nbsp; são funkeiros, e foram presos acusados de fazerem apologias ao crime.&amp;nbsp; não conheço a musica deles, e nem a lei sob qual serão processados.&amp;nbsp; mas nem me importo. pode ser exemplo da minha gringuice, mas sempre entendi liberdade de expressão como um direito de dizer coisas que talvez não sejam defendidas ou permitidas pelos órgãos oficiais da sociedade.&amp;nbsp; ouvindo o raciocínio deles comparado ao da delegada que os prendeu no vídeo abaixo, acho que fica muito óbvio que os funkeiros entendem a liberdade da expressão muito melhor do que a delegada, que parece juntar qualquer desculpa para proibir o que ela não gosta.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://oglobo.globo.com/rio/video/2010/21548/"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;http://oglobo.globo.com/rio/video/2010/21548/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;sempre vi no caso do brasil uma consciência de que censurar opiniões não populares é coisa da ditadura.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; penso que há um reconhecimento geral no brasil de que os anos de chumbo em nada ajudaram o país, e que a transição à democracia tem que ser valorizada; tem exceções, é claro, mas me parecem cada vez mais restritos a velhos bêbados que conheço na rua, ou então a revista veja.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;porém...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;o caso dos funkeiros é muito preocupante.&amp;nbsp; hoje, saiu no globo a notícia da prisão do mc dido, de borel, na qual a advogada disse que pedir para as upps saírem não é adotar uma postura política, e sim "instigar crime".&amp;nbsp; (não consigo achar o link, mas estava na versão impressa).&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;enquanto isso, estourou hoje a notícia de que uma videografa do teatro oficina perdeu a guarda do seu filho por trabalhar num teatro experimental que trata de temas sexuais.&amp;nbsp; a carta polêmica do zé celso explica o caso muito melhor:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://teatroficina.uol.com.br/posts/423"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;http://teatroficina.uol.com.br/posts/423&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;acho que minha maior dificuldade diante&amp;nbsp; esses casos é ver como um individuo com poder, ou com as ligações precisas, consegue fazer esse tipo de repressão rolar.&amp;nbsp; pelo que eu entendi, no caso da ditadura teve um esforço centralizado, era todo um sistema sincronizado que agiu para inibir a livre expressão.&amp;nbsp; nas grandes censuras desta semana, porém, parece ser pessoas vingativas e suficientemente poderosas para realizar a repressão que quiserem como programa pessoal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;a boa notícia, escondida dentro de todo isso, é que o vídeo de cima saiu no site do globo, pela repórter ludmila curi, uma conhecida minha que tem feita dois grandes trabalhos essa semana.&amp;nbsp; indico também seu tratamento da expulsão na segunda-feira:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://oglobo.globo.com/rio/video/2010/21507/"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;http://oglobo.globo.com/rio/video/2010/21507/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;é muito bom saber que tem gente usando o poder da grande mídia para mostrar as várias hipocrisias e abusos ao nosso redor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-5742715062075090235?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/5742715062075090235/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=5742715062075090235' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/5742715062075090235'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/5742715062075090235'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/12/liberdade.html' title='liberdade'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-5828959951523167636</id><published>2010-12-14T10:50:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-14T13:17:41.434-08:00</updated><title type='text'>de prédios e praias</title><content type='html'>&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;quem mora no rio de janeiro provavelmente já ouviu da desocupação violenta, desnecessária, e ilegal que houve ontem na lapa, na avenida mem de sá quando um grupo de sem-tetos e seus apoiadores foram tirados do lugar à força pela polícia militar (apesar desse tipo de ação estar muito claramente definido como tarefa da polícia federal).&amp;nbsp;

qualquer aglomeração é vista como suspeita, e spray da pimenta é utilizado como a primeira medida contra qualquer atitude julgada a ser não-obediente.&amp;nbsp; até alexei barrionuevo, correspondente da américa do sul do &lt;i&gt;new york times&lt;/i&gt;, escreveu na semana passada sobre os vários abusos de poder durante a invasão do alemão.&amp;nbsp; e ele é um cara que costuma ver dilma como representante da extrema esquerda e apontar a época pinochet como a mais bem-sucedida na história do chile.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="PT-BR"&gt;é claro, também, que acho muito mais importante divulgar a história da ocupação. mas ver a prefeitura gastando dinheiro público e se esforçando para inibir a quem estiver se divertindo na praia é mais uma mostra de quanto o espaço da cidade não pertence mais aos seus moradores. quem procure se relacionar com o espaço público da cidade, seja procurando abrigo em um prédio que pertence ao povo brasileiro ou simplesmente procurando lazer nas praias, é alvo de punição de autoridades cada vez mais preocupadas em atrair o dinheiro que vai vir de fora com os megaeventos dos próximos anos, e cada vez menos interessadas nos direitos básicos dos seus cidadãos.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-5828959951523167636?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/5828959951523167636/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=5828959951523167636' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/5828959951523167636'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/5828959951523167636'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/12/de-predios-e-praias.html' title='de prédios e praias'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-5821695855050387430</id><published>2010-12-08T07:36:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-08T17:22:10.987-08:00</updated><title type='text'>a paixão do zé carioca/the passion of zé carioca</title><content type='html'>vídeo novo de uma "performance em quadrinhos" realizada na lapa no dia 26 de novembro.&amp;nbsp;

i apologise for my pretentious teenage writing style - at the time, i was sure that being good with words meant sounding like stephen fry - but i think it makes for an interesting historical artifact... and an interesting lead-in for thinking about the place of law enforcement 11 years down the line, whether in seattle, new york, or rio de janeiro:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do not read the following if you're not interested in what's going on in Seattle.&amp;nbsp; I am alive, have not been arrested (yet, anyway), and I am doing well, although I may not be able to eat hot sauce for a while.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since arriving at work today (after scouring downtown for blockades to join or barricades to annoy, neither of which had yet materialised), hundreds of people have been arrested.&amp;nbsp; I fear that I cannot provide an update or firsthand account of the ure of yesterday's charmingly labeled "chaos."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cannot speak as a member of the (legal) AFL-CIO march, but I do have the pleasure of having taken part in the protest that actually closed down the WTO.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We in Seattle keep hearing of the fantastic "police estraint."&amp;nbsp; Was I witness to police restraint?&amp;nbsp; Yes,&lt;br /&gt;in terms of restraining peaceful protestors and their respiratory passages.&amp;nbsp; Violence against the masses is, of course, an entirely seperate catagory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday -- for me at least -- began when the number 27 bus was kind enough to deposit me within a few blocks of the rally that preceeded the much-discussed civil disobedience.&amp;nbsp; At least a thousand people marched together toward the convention site under banners, cardboard ears of corn, and a papier-mache cow. Groups of one hundred or more broke off at various WTO hotspots.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I joined the human chain in front of the Sheraton, which is functioning as the main hotel for the event. &lt;br /&gt;Our blockade was somewhat successful: there was no direct police interference when delegates approached the chain, but when delegates (mostly German and Belgium men) ran at us and attempted to break the chain, the police line behind us moved forward, clubs swinging, to escort the delegates into the hotel.&amp;nbsp; Still, the line held off most of the delegates who attempted to enter for about three hours (we allowedthe Cuban delegates through with no trouble; the police proceeded to detain them for five minutes).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At about ten, there was some trouble at the police barricade about a block south of our position, and the ever-pleasant aroma of tear gas came wafting toward us.&amp;nbsp; The line held, although additional cannisters fired within a hundred feet of us made it neccessary for us to cover our faces completely, thereby compromising our ability to spot delegates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The tear gas eventually subsided, and I left the front of the line to act as an escort, attempting to move&lt;br /&gt;delegates politely away from the line before they charged, and before they had a chance to berate&lt;br /&gt;protestors.&amp;nbsp; We effectively talked away three or four people by about 10:45.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shortly thereafter, the police line on the street in front of us began firing tear gas and pepper spray,&lt;br /&gt;and moving protestors back.&amp;nbsp; This was apparently triggered by protestors who threw sticks, although&lt;br /&gt;from our position it looked like a random, police-initiated action.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the line moved down the street, a cannister was fired toward the hotel entrance.&amp;nbsp; Cannisters went off&lt;br /&gt;to the immediate left of the entrance.&amp;nbsp; The line held, mostly silently, and with no violence or even sudden movements of any kind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suddenly, the police line behind the protesters' blockade moved forward, breaking up the line with&lt;br /&gt;their clubs.&amp;nbsp; The line began to break, and the immediate right of the hotel entrance was gassed,&lt;br /&gt;leaving us with no exit.&amp;nbsp; When we attempted to push back toward the hotel, we were pepper-sprayed (I was fortunate enough to get some directly in my right eye; lots of fun).&amp;nbsp; Several people fell, overcome by the panoply of fumes.&amp;nbsp; Police ignored them and continued to beat anyone standing closely enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Seattle police pepper-sprayed another escort -- a 70-year-old man -- so severly that he was unable to speak.&amp;nbsp; Protestors had to pry his hands away from his face in order to rinse away some of the spray.&amp;nbsp; Police restraint?&amp;nbsp; Not as such.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The opportunity for mass arrest presented itself several times yesterday, and thousands of people were&lt;br /&gt;ready to be arrested with no attempts at violence (the violence all occured at least a block away).&amp;nbsp; Instead, we were continually gassed and sprayed, and those within a block of us were shot with rubber bullets.&amp;nbsp; In three particularly memorable minutes, at least ten tear gas cannisters were fired on the same&lt;br /&gt;intersection.&amp;nbsp; One of the cannisters ignited a dumpster, which prompted vandals to burn two others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday's protests were undoubtedly a success, and the message sent to the WTO and massive international corporations was evident.&amp;nbsp; But the Seattle police played no part in the calm, and it is they who are ultimately culpable for the majority of the distruction and disorder.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope everything is less gassy in your respective necks of the woods.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Viva la revolucion!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-8060310710714456726?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/8060310710714456726/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=8060310710714456726' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/8060310710714456726'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/8060310710714456726'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/11/seattle-eleven-years-later.html' title='seattle, eleven years later...'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-3854094597873684213</id><published>2010-11-24T04:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-24T12:39:47.425-08:00</updated><title type='text'>horse's ass/a bunda do cavalo</title><content type='html'>i've always had issues with mounted cops.&amp;nbsp; as i understand it, they're all about the performance of power: blocking the street, showing how much bigger they are than you (and how well-angled to beat your head in), and parading their domination of wild animals (the better to subjugate any animal urges in the populace). i've also noticed that the powers that put crime-fighting horses on the street in central neighborhoods always seem to impound the transportation-oriented horses in poor neighborhoods, pulling them off the street and turning them into glue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;riding horses through the streets of lapa hasn't made sense for at least a century, but last night, six of them plodded down joaquim silva as we were finishing up the fifth or sixth beer on the sidewalk.&amp;nbsp; i&amp;nbsp; must have been staring a little too closely or critically, because one of the cops kept giving me really ugly looks.&amp;nbsp; he's bigger and stronger, of course.&amp;nbsp; but in spite of his ride, it's still our street, as we proved with a couple hours of rain-soaked poetry on selarón's stairs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

no meu entendimento, estão ali para fazer uma performance de poder:&amp;nbsp; blouqueando a rua, mostrando quanto são maiores que você (e bem-posicionados para bater sua cabeça), e desfilando sua dominação de animais selvagens (para também se mostrarem capazes de subjugar qualquer instito animal entre a população).&amp;nbsp; também percebi que os poderes públicos que colocam cavalos anti-crime nas ruas dos bairros centrais sempre tendem a reprimir os cavalos transportadores dos bairros pobres, os tirando da rua e fazendo cola deles. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;andar de cavalo pelas ruas da lapa não faz sentido há pelo menos um século, mas ontem à noite, seis cavalos se arrastavam pela joaquim silva enquanto terminamos nossa quinta ou sexta cerva na calçada.&amp;nbsp; acho que olhei fixo demais, ou talvez com um olhar crítico demais, pois um dos policiais me olhou muito feio durante toda a procissão.&amp;nbsp; ele é maior e mais forte, é claro.&amp;nbsp; mas apesar do seu cavalo, a rua continua sendo nossa, como provamos com algumas horas de poesia chuvosa na escadaria do selarón.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-3854094597873684213?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/3854094597873684213/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=3854094597873684213' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/3854094597873684213'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/3854094597873684213'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/11/horses-assa-bunda-do-cavalo.html' title='horse&apos;s ass/a bunda do cavalo'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TO0IbZFhYjI/AAAAAAAAAQQ/pV6A2ebRrsU/s72-c/IMG_0090.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-7615205358969298895</id><published>2010-11-19T07:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-19T07:51:09.509-08:00</updated><title type='text'>arte urbana/urban art</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

&lt;b&gt;our&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;streets!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(de quem são as ruas?&amp;nbsp; são &lt;b&gt;nossas!)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;estive nas manifestações basicamente por acaso (estava morando em seattle naquela época), mas fiquei muito marcado pela experiência.&amp;nbsp; tomar as ruas através de uma força popular, viver numa zona temporária autônoma, por mais curta que fosse a duração dela, e ficar engasgado com gás lacrimogêneo mudou minha percepção das cidades e as possibilidades de convivência nelas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;morando no rio de janeiro, penso muito em nosso grito coletivo de seattle.&amp;nbsp; mas como gringo morador de um bairro privilegiado, geralmente tenho a sensação de que, apesar de tudo, me resta uma liberdade nas ruas.&amp;nbsp; apesar do eduardo paes falar no &lt;i&gt;new york times&lt;/i&gt; que o problema do carioca é tratar do espaço público "como se fosse dele", sinto uma liberdade nas ruas que, por mais que seja muito relacionado a minha classe social, cor, ou gênero, me faz esquecer como a democracia espacial é tão precária.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;mas, como eu moro perto da lapa, geralmente tem algum choque de ordem para me lembrar dessa precariedade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hoje, no final da tarde de domingo, fecharam mem de sá e riachuelo - as duas via principais - para facilitar a filmagem do terceiro filme na série "crepúsculo".&amp;nbsp; ergueram barricadas e muros de zinco fechando as duas ruas (mais um trecho de lavradio), o que basicamente impossibilitou qualquer caminho pela lapa.&amp;nbsp; dezenas de guardas municipais bloquearam a entrada de quem queria passar - consegui atravessar por volta dàs 19h com o último grupo a entrar depois das portinhas dos muros serem fechadas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;obviamente, a situação provocou chatice entre os moradores impedidos a entrar nas próprias casas, e entre a galera que queria andar pelas ruas que até recentemente pareciam ser deles.&amp;nbsp; com a aglomeração nas muros crecendo, começaram a rolar pequenas confusões entre guardas e civis, e entre moradores irritados com a situação e com a maneira dos seus vizinhos.&amp;nbsp; enquanto isso, um grupo de guardas escutaram atensiosamente as ordens de um assessor da filmadora.&amp;nbsp; ou seja, a política de segurança no bairro estava sendo dirigido não pela prefeitura; ela tinha sida alugada, junto com o direito de livre passagem, para a mídia internacional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;vendo que apenas atores internacionais tinham direito de passagem, tentei entrar novamente na zona proíbida, mostrando meu protocolo de estrangeiro e explicando - em inglês e português - que eu sou estrangeiro formado em teatro, e por isso, deveria gozar dos mesmos benefícios que os demais entreteinadores internacionais.&amp;nbsp; os guardas não gostaram da lógica, e me ameaçaram com os cacetes quando pensavam que eu ia entrar de verdade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sei que fechar uma rua para filmar é algo normal em todas as grandes cidades do mundo.&amp;nbsp; mas fechar as duas ruas principais (e mais seguras) sem avisar os moradores antes, fazendo com que quem estiver na rua se vira prisoneiro no seu próprio bairro, e manter a ordem com bastões é, infelizmente, muito caracteristica da incompetência e brutalidade que caracterizam a reforma urbana no rio de janeiro.&amp;nbsp; ficou muito claro, mais uma vez, que o que interesse na "reurbanização" da cidade não é o melhoramente da realidade atual, e sim a colocação de uma outra cidade em cima de que e quem estiver por aqui agora.&amp;nbsp; o sucesso internacional está chegando - quem estiver no caminho dela, que se fode.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;e essa galera de ordem ainda tem a ousadia de chamar de vandalismo pixar parede ou mijar na rua.&amp;nbsp; depois de ver muros de zinco erguidos para nos excluir das ruas onde sempre andamos, fica ainda mais claro que o vandalismo é deles.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-5554484543377125352?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/5554484543377125352/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=5554484543377125352' title='3 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/5554484543377125352'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/5554484543377125352'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/11/de-quem-e-essa-rua.html' title='de quem é essa rua?'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-8286711980491038300</id><published>2010-11-04T02:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-08T12:54:31.753-08:00</updated><title type='text'>entre culturas, entre eleições</title><content type='html'>ainda não criei uma boa resposta padrão para os faladores de inglês que me perguntam por quê estou no brasil.&amp;nbsp; digo a eles que eu sinto mais vivo aqui, que sinto mais confortável como &lt;i&gt;outsider&lt;/i&gt; aqui do que dentro do meu próprio país.&amp;nbsp; digo que acredito na mudança que está acontecendo aqui.&amp;nbsp; digo que a arte me parece mais viva, mais visível, mais democrática, mais vital.&amp;nbsp; digo que até na época atual de giulianificação e choque de ordem, a arte está sempre nas ruas, e todos querem fazer parte dela, e não há como escapar dela. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;às vezes, conto sobre a primeira vez que cheguei no galeão, 10 minutos antes da seleção marcar o primeiro gol no final da copa de 2002.&amp;nbsp; conto que assisti os balconistas do free shop dançando em fila com os oficiais da alfândega.&amp;nbsp; conto que poderia sentir o cheiro de esperança durante os primeiros 2 meses que passei aqui, e que as ruas estavam electrificantes com a ideia de que um operário poderia virar presidente.&amp;nbsp; se me parece que a pessoa está de fato escutando, conto o outro lado da história: como eu voltei para minha faculdade nos estados unidos para a inevitabilidade de uma guerra, para ruas tornando frias com o inverno e rostos virando duros com uma resolução infeliz.&amp;nbsp; conto como os quartos dos meus amigos foram invadidos à força, como ameaças de morte foram escritos nas suas portas por eles terem tido a audacidade de questionar o que estava acontecendo com nosso país.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;pode chamar isso de um caso de lutar ou fugir.&amp;nbsp; aliás, pode ser que seja um exemplo de ambos.&amp;nbsp; acho que foi naquele ano que os estates parou de parecer como meu lar, ou pelo menos parou de parecer como a minha única opção.&amp;nbsp; foi nesse ano em que senti que os anos bush poderiam ser uma consequência lógica da nossa história, e não apenas um fenômeno que desaparecerida nos movimentos da história.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;cresci durante os anos reagan (e nos anos bush pai), mas fui criado para ver essas épocas como algo que iria passar.&amp;nbsp; me criei num cantinho legalzinho e intelectual dos estados unidos, onde falavamos tanto de diversidade e multiculturalismo que ficavamos com lábios rachados.&amp;nbsp; cresci escutando holly near (cantora lésbica de música folk) cantar sobre chilenos desaparecidos, e lendo howard zinn (historiador radical da esquerda) no meu segundo ano de segundo grau.&amp;nbsp; isso aconteceu numa escola pública, numa aula dada com dois professores e alunos de vários níveis (algo incomum nas escolas tradicionais dos estados unidos), dentro de uma escola em que aulas de matemática foram oferecidas em pelo menos 6 idiomas para estudantes imigrantes, uma escola que contou com um professor cujo trabalho foi organizar e avisar o grupo de solidariedade entre estudantes gays e heteros.&amp;nbsp; obviamente eu sabia que os estados unidos como um todo não foi como a gente, mas imaginei que demoraria apenas alguns anos para que o resto do país se tornasse assim.&amp;nbsp; pensei que o progresso foi inevitável, e que foi algo parecido com a gente e tudo com que a gente contava.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;claro, nosso progresso nunca foi completo, e tudo aquilo com que a gente contava ainda deixou muito coisa faltando. por exemplo, o policial que prendeu henry louis gates, jr. (professor de harvard que foi prendido acusado de ladrão) por ser negro dentro da sua própria casa se formou alguns anos antes de mim na mesma escola pública.&amp;nbsp; mas cresci acreditando (apesar de todo meu cinismo precoce) em um país que estava se aproximando à democracia e algum tipo de justiça.&amp;nbsp; quando cresci um pouco mais, achei isso no brasil.&amp;nbsp; não conheço muitos brasileiros que pensam que seu país é perfeito, mais estou constantemente comovido pelo conforto geral que todo mundo tem em criticar seu país (construtivamente ou não), e a sua insistência vociferadora na necessidade de certas mudanças.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; na minha faculdade nos estados unidos, falar seriamente sobre mudança social frequentemente fez com que a gente estivesse chamado de traidor, e isso foi em um campus relativamente progressivo.&amp;nbsp; apesar de muito conservadorismo social por aqui - o que foi frustrantemente evidente esse mês passado quando dilma se rendeu sobre as questões de aborto e direitos para gays - a mudança parece ser algo em que a maioria não apenas acredita, mais também em que está prestes a trabalhar para que ela acontecer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;isso não é para dizer que desisti inteiramente dos estados unidos, ou que lamento as eleições de lá enquanto comemoro as eleições d'aqui (mas sinto muito mais otimista em relação a um país com dilma rousseff como presidente do que um país sem russ feingold, único representante de uma velha esquerda, no seu senado).&amp;nbsp; a política partidária brasileira me interesse, mas depois de mais de cem anos de intervenção ianque, não sinto que tenho muito direito de me posicionar.&amp;nbsp; mas claro que o que está acontecendo socialmente é refletido politicamente, e por aqui, isso parece com progresso.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-8286711980491038300?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/8286711980491038300/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=8286711980491038300' title='11 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/8286711980491038300'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/8286711980491038300'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/11/entre-culturas-entre-eleicoes.html' title='entre culturas, entre eleições'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-6651543866741951741</id><published>2010-11-03T06:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-03T07:08:31.115-07:00</updated><title type='text'>between cultures, between elections...</title><content type='html'>i have yet to come up with a good stock answer for english speakers who ask me why i'm in brasil.&amp;nbsp; i tell them i feel more alive, that i feel more comfortable as an outsider here than as an outsider in my own country.&amp;nbsp; i say i believe in the change that's taking place here.&amp;nbsp; i say that art feels more alive, more visible, more democratic, more vital.&amp;nbsp; i say that even in the age of giulianification and the "shock of order" campaign, art is always on the streets and everybody wants to be a part of it and you can't escape it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sometimes, i tell them about landing in rio for the first time 10 minutes before brasil scored the first goal in the 2002 world cup final, about watching duty free shop employees and customs guards dance in a conga line by the baggage claim.&amp;nbsp; i tell them about the way i could smell hope in the first two months i spent here, about how the streets were electric with the idea that a factory worker could be a president.&amp;nbsp; and if i think they're really listening, i tell them the other side of the story, about how i went back to college to the inevitability of a war, to streets going cold with winter and faces going hard with grim resolve.&amp;nbsp; i tell them about my friends' rooms getting broken into, death threats scrawled on their doors because they had the audacity to question what was going on with our country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so call it fight or flight, or both.&amp;nbsp; i think that was the year when the states stopped feeling like home to me, or at least stopped feeling like the only option.&amp;nbsp; that was when it felt like the bush years might be a logical consequence of history, and not just something that would fade into a passing blur of history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i grew up during the reagan (and bush the first) years, but i was raised to see them as something that would pass in due time. i grew up in a funky little intellectual corner of the united states that paid so much lip service to diversity and multiculturalism that we all had to stock up on organic chapstick.&amp;nbsp; i grew up listening to holly near sing about disappeared chileans and reading howard zinn in my sophomore year of high school.&amp;nbsp; this was in a public high school class that was team taught and heterogenous, in a school that offered math classes in at least 6 languages for immigrant students, a public high school that had a teacher whose full-time job was to serve as an advisor to the gay-straight alliance.&amp;nbsp; of course i knew then that the united states wasn't all like us, but i assumed it would only be a matter of time before it got that way.&amp;nbsp; i thought that progress was inevitable, and that it looked like us and everything we took for granted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;of course, our progress was never close to complete, and what we took for granted left a lot to be desired.&amp;nbsp; for example, the cop who arrested henry louis gates, jr. for being black in his own home graduated a few years ahead of me from the same public high school.&amp;nbsp; but i grew up believing (however precociously cynical i might have been) in a country that was moving toward democracy and some sort of justice.&amp;nbsp; when i got a little bit older, i found that in brasil.&amp;nbsp; i haven't met many brasilians who think their country is perfect, but i'm consistently moved by how comfortable everyone is in criticizing their country (constructively or otherwise), and insisting vociferously on the changes that have to be made.&amp;nbsp; when i was in college, talking seriously about social change frequently got you labeled a traitor...and this was on a relatively fuzzy liberal campus.&amp;nbsp; in spite of a strong streak of social conservatism here - frustratingly evident in the past month when dilma capitulated on questions of abortion and gay rights - change seems to be something that most people not only believe in, but are actually ready to work for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;all of this is not to say that i've given up on the states, or that i'm bemoaning the elections there while cheering on the elections here (though i feel a lot more optimistic about a country with dilma rousseff as its president than a country without russ feingold in its senate).&amp;nbsp; i'm interested in brasilian electoral politics, but after 100+ years of yankee intervention, i really don't feel like i have the right to take much of a position on them. but of course, what's going on socially is reflected in what's going on politically - and in these parts, that feels like progress.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-6651543866741951741?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/6651543866741951741/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=6651543866741951741' title='3 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/6651543866741951741'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/6651543866741951741'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/11/between-cultures-between-elections.html' title='between cultures, between elections...'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-194518292025246056</id><published>2010-11-01T10:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-01T10:25:34.232-07:00</updated><title type='text'>barrionuevo on dilma (again)</title><content type='html'>Dear Alexei Barrionuevo,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saying that Dilma is sort of like Michelle Bachelet or Cristina Kirschner - because she is a left-leaning woman who suffered at the hands of Brazil's dictatorship - is pretty legit.

but it was impossible to know that when we saw her kneeling on the ground of the plaza with her head on the ground.&amp;nbsp; behind her, a municipal security guard (sort of a junior police officer) twisted her arms behind her back, while another threatened the girl with his hyper-phallic nightstick, a meter-long hard cock.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there were almost thirty of us watching, but the guards only let the girl stand up when six of us - all white university students, and mostly gringos - made our way to the front of the crowd.&amp;nbsp; the girl - black, with a shaved head, wearing long shorts and with her breasts invisible under her baggy shirt - lifted herself up crying silently, while one of the guards showed the crowd half of a broken bottle, which the girl was supposedly carrying with her as an improvised weapon. one of the university students went to talk with the guards, and told us later that they'd wanted to search the girl, even though she was female and underage (and therefore not legally subject to search by male guards).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the guards, increasingly aware of the crowd's gaze, took the girl to the "shock of order" trailer, which is &lt;br /&gt;right in front of the new "official" graffiti mural.&amp;nbsp; the mural is subsidized by antarctica beer, which is turning into an official brand for the newly "cool" and "good" lapa neighborhood, the historic bohemian nightlife district that's been heavily spiffed up in recent months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TLvEBgRThDI/AAAAAAAAAO8/ZWhPFm6A8Vk/s1600/IMG_0120.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em;

we also knew that, unfortunately, our gaze has much more power than the other folks out for the night in lapa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at the trailer, the guards consulted someone - an civilian boss or coordinator - who told them to let the girl go, since there was no video proving anything against.&amp;nbsp; we escorted her away as a group, because the lack of video wouldn't keep her from being held again, and without the weightier gaze of a group associated with human rights, a second time wouldn't be easy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;writing now days later, i see how the girl - in spite of being at the center of what happened - wasn't the central character in the event.&amp;nbsp; for the guards, she was an inconvenience, less worrisome than the 6 white university students watching them.&amp;nbsp; for us, she was a victim, a reflection of various abuses of power that surround us - but we don't know her name, or where she came from, or anything about who she is.&amp;nbsp; and for lapa as a neighborhood, none of this was out of the ordinary...this sort of thing must happen dozens of times every friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a lot of the redefinition of lapa has to do with changing the meaning of the word "malandro."&amp;nbsp; traditionally, it's represented scoundrels, rascals, and misfits, the clever guys who know how to use the streets to their advantage, to sweet talk, con, seduce, or fight their way to what they need.&amp;nbsp; a malandro is someone you might admire for his cunning from a distance, but not someone you want to take advantage of you.&amp;nbsp; now, however, "malandro" is losing any sense of danger or otherness.&amp;nbsp; these days, real malandros are the hip kids who go out to have responsible fun and spend their money in expensive bars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;the other kind of malandro hasn't existed for a long time, and now it's being substituted by street cleaners wearing panama hats (on friday and saturday nights in lapa), street vendors wearing official antarctica beer aprons, and a newly painted aqueduct.&amp;nbsp; i know that police brutality is also an old tradition in lapa. in that sense what we saw last friday night wasn't especially significant:&amp;nbsp; beating up poor folks, black people, and gays has been part of the neighborhood's heritage at least since the days of madame satã, the legendary drag queen, malandro, and street fighter from the 1920s.&amp;nbsp; but i also have to think that real malandros don't beat up women, and especially not girls.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-6951188499066980066?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/6951188499066980066/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=6951188499066980066' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/6951188499066980066'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/6951188499066980066'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/10/friday-night-in-lapa.html' title='friday night in lapa...'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TLvEBgRThDI/AAAAAAAAAO8/ZWhPFm6A8Vk/s72-c/IMG_0120.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-4986956965767958330</id><published>2010-10-17T21:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-17T21:08:10.043-07:00</updated><title type='text'>sexta à noite na lapa</title><content type='html'>parecia um menino de 14 anos, mas na verdade era uma menina de 17.&amp;nbsp; porém, foi impossível saber disso quando vimos ela ajoelhada na praça com a cabeça no chão, diante de um guarda municipal torcendo os braços dela para atrás das costas, enquanto outro a ameaçou com seu cacete híper-fálico, um pau duro de quase um metro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;eramos quase 30 pessoas olhando, mas os guardas só deixou ela ficar em pé quando 6 de nós - todos brancos, universitários, e em grande parte gringos - fomos para a frente da aglomeração.&amp;nbsp; a menina - negra, com cabelo raspado, de bermuda e com os peitos invisivéis debaixo da sua camisa folgada - se levantou, chorando silenciosamente, enquanto um dos guardas mostrou metade de uma garrafa quebrada, o que a menina supostamente estava portando como uma arma improvisatória.&amp;nbsp; uma das universitárias foi falar com os guardas, e disse depois que queriam revistar a menina, apesar dela ser mulher e menor de idade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;os guardas, cada vez mais cientes do olhar da aglomeração, levaram a menina para o &lt;i&gt;trailer &lt;/i&gt;do choque de ordem, que fica logo em frente à nova muralha de grafite "oficial", patrocinada pela cerveja antarctica, o que está virando uma marca de uma lapa "boa" e "legal".&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TLvEBgRThDI/AAAAAAAAAO8/ZWhPFm6A8Vk/s1600/IMG_0120.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="480" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TLvEBgRThDI/AAAAAAAAAO8/ZWhPFm6A8Vk/s640/IMG_0120.JPG" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

formamos uma escolta para acompanhá-la, pois a falta de vídeo não impederia que ela fosse pega de novo, e sem o olhar pesado de uma galera associada com direitos humanos, a segunda vez com certeza não seria mole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;escrevendo agora, dois dias depois, vejo como a menina, apesar de estar no centro do acontecimento, não foi o personagem central.&amp;nbsp; para os guardas, foi uma inconveniência, menos preocupante do que os 6 universitários brancos assistindo.&amp;nbsp; para nós, ela era uma vítima, reflexão dos vários abusos do poder que nos cercam...mas não sabemos o nome dela, ou de onde ela veio, ou muito menos quem ela é.&amp;nbsp; e para lapa em si, não era nada fora do normal...esse tipo de coisa deve se repetir dezenas de vezes a cada sexta-feira.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;boa parte da redefinição da lapa é fazer com que a palavra "malandro" muda de significado, perdendo qualquer sentido de perigo ou alternatividade.&amp;nbsp; malandro que é malandro agora é cult, é quem sai para se divertir responsávelmente, gastando dinheiro nos botequins mais caros.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TLvGlWsSp_I/AAAAAAAAAPM/yF71cqHKOFM/s1600/IMG_0010.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em;

sei que brutalidade policial também é uma antiga tradição na lapa, e o que a gente viu sexta à noite era muito pouco:&amp;nbsp; bater em pobres, negros, e gays é património do bairro pelo menos desde os tempos de madame satã.&amp;nbsp; mas tenho que pensar também que malandro que é malandro não bate em mulher, e muito menos em menina.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-4986956965767958330?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/4986956965767958330/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=4986956965767958330' title='2 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/4986956965767958330'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/4986956965767958330'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/10/sexta-noite-na-lapa.html' title='sexta à noite na lapa'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/TLvEBgRThDI/AAAAAAAAAO8/ZWhPFm6A8Vk/s72-c/IMG_0120.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-5157198866796281997</id><published>2010-10-16T12:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-16T12:08:35.331-07:00</updated><title type='text'>hoje na lapa...</title><content type='html'>como a próxima postagem vai relatar uma história bastante desesperada, queria mostrar antes esse sinal de vitalidade urbana que encontrei hoje, por volta do meio-dia, na calçada a frente à escola de música da ufrj na lapa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;since the next post is going to tell a pretty desperate story, i wanted to show this sign of urban vitality first.&amp;nbsp;

for example:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The race to save the miners has thrust Chile into a spotlight it has often sought but rarely experienced.

a lot of people around the world, especially in latin america, are not so cool with government "austerity" measures, especially when they leave people uneducated, hungry, and homeless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;since you don't give us any idea of what kind of time frame you're talking about - but also since chilean human rights abuses have really been a non-issue during michelle bachelet's presidency - i have to wonder if you're talking about this guy:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augusto_Pinochet"&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augusto_Pinochet&lt;/a&gt;

When you cite sources like Datafolha or Veja, it would be a nice to tell your non-Brazilian readers that they have a strong and freely admitted right-wing bias. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. You could at least try to hide your disappointment that the "scandal" you tried so hard to peddle didn't really take off. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. When you say that Lula "deepened" Fernando Henrique Cardoso's economic policies, it would be good to point out that this did not include the wholesale privatization of public resources, or the meek obeisance to the IMF and World Bank. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3b. Actually, maybe it would be better not to say it at all, given that it is not true, per se. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. The idea that Dilma might steer the country to the left is not, as you suggest, a universal "concern." Nobody really believes that this will happen, but a lot of my friends think it would be a good idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not trying to endorse Dilma or anybody else, but I think it's important to look at how relentlessly the NYT distorts its coverage of Latin America to promote a neoliberal agenda that's in line with Brasil's right wing.&amp;nbsp; Given the paper's importance on the world stage and its supposed neutrality, its coverage is often cited in Brazil as an example of unbiased outside reporting, even though most of its content comes cribbed from ideologically slanted sources (imagine reporting on the States based only on what's in the Wall Street Journal or Fox News).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/03/world/americas/03brazil.html?ref=americas"&gt;http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/03/world/americas/03brazil.html?ref=americas&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8889217373629759300-4559313123132627752?l=gringoquefala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/feeds/4559313123132627752/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8889217373629759300&amp;postID=4559313123132627752' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/4559313123132627752'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8889217373629759300/posts/default/4559313123132627752'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gringoquefala.blogspot.com/2010/10/dear-new-york-timesalexei-barrionuevo.html' title='dear new york times/alexei barrionuevo...'/><author><name>gringo que fala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02877694626060978833</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_eo_c4AfWqv0/S1tTDpBqURI/AAAAAAAAAB0/CI806lYpQVI/S220/ze+blog+2.png'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889217373629759300.post-3135120922913354117</id><published>2010-09-26T22:43:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-26T22:43:08.836-07:00</updated><title type='text'>checkpoint madureira - performance na terça</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

bethlem, who's currently a candidate for national congress, is responsible for implementing the "shock of order" campaign in rio.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;the producers of "shock tv" denied being part of bethlem's campaign, apparently because they thought that suco and i were just two more clueless gringos.&amp;nbsp; they said that the city is cleaner now, safer, etc, and that the removal of residents from occupied buildings, favelas, and the street was taking place to "take care of" these people, though they didn't know where these people went after being "cared for."&amp;nbsp; but that's how it goes...&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;so-called urban cleaning tends to have an ex&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;terminatory vision of "lower" populations.&amp;nbsp; the killings of amadou diallou and shawn bell - both unarmed black men shot by the police - are well-known cases in new york of the amplification of force under "zero tolerance."&amp;nbsp; could it really be that in rio, where the police already kill more people proportionally than in any other city in the world (according to a study published last year), there will be any other effect?&amp;nbsp;
