Community From Beyond Elections is Evicted

Brazilian authorities are forcibly removing low-income Brazilian communities in the name of the 2014 World Cup; this time in Porto Alegre’s Chocolatão—a neighborhood involved in the city's participatory budgeting, which appears in Beyond Elections. The community is set to be evicted this week. If you speak Portuguese, here's a short video on the situation and the injustice. You can visit this blog post for more information on the increasing forced evictions around the country. Image of the front entrance to the Chocolatão, 2009.
