I read this earlier. Great piece. Interested to know if there will be consequences (beyond a glut of bad movies) for what appears to be some very shady behaviour.

I reported from Rio's favelas a fair bit. This piece, about Coletivo Papo Reto, the activists campaigning against police violence, is relevant today. Raull Santiago has been all over Brazilian media, describing the search for bodies and demanding accountability for the bloodshed.
