(Thursday, April 21st)
During my senior projects periods and at home I continued my research into Brazilian Politics. I looked into the recent impeachment of Brazil's President Dilma Rouseff. I discovered much about her past as she was involved in the revolution agains the military dictatorship and was detained and tortured for some time. I also researched the past and career of Lula, who was Brazil's President before Dilma Rouseff and the President when I lived in Brazil. His story is absolutely fascinating and he is seen as one of the best politicians in Brazil of all time. He instated many welfare programs that have resulted in a 27.7% reduction in poverty in Brazil. My research for that continued and I also finished the movie for Friday. I kept reading the Alchemist and varying articles in Portuguese.
