Lula’s Win in Brazil


On this episode of the Project Censored Show, human rights advocate Gimena Sanchez-Garzoli rejoins co-host Eleanor Goldfield on the program to give her expert analysis on the Lula win in Brazil. Gimena outlines US meddling tactics, and why that matters for voters here at home. Gimena also dissects the power of the right-wing’s propaganda, the new job market in stealing and selling a hemisphere, and how Colombia is censoring the past to control the future.
