Concert Program Of Elton John's First Visit To The USSR In May 1979.

the presidential sash for the first time ever was handed over by the people of brazil

the fascist ex-president bolsonaro ran away from brazil and refused to participate in the ceremony, breaking one of brazil’s democracy’s staple traditions that is to hand the presidential sash to the successor. lula received the presidential sash from individuals representing the brazilian peoples.

this going to be a long post, but it’s really important for us.

francisco, 10 years old, swimmer of corinthians, a brazilian sports club. he lives in a outskirts of são paulo. after watching a movie about lula, he saw that he could be a president too.

aline sousa, 33 years old, garbage collector since she was 14 and the 3rd generation of collector in the family. aline is a mother of 6 boys and 1 girl, in 2012 she was elected director secretary of the CENTCOOP-DF (a central of work cooperatives of collectors in distrito federal, brasília) and 3 years later the first president of the entity.

chief raoni metuktire, 90 years old, dedicated his life to the defense of the amazon and the peoples of the forest. he is recognized by indigenous and riverside communities as one of the main representatives of the struggle to preserve the forest and the amazonian peoples.

weslley viesba rodrigues rocha, 36 years old, metallurgist from ABC region since he was 18 years old. married and father of two boys, cauã, 18 years old, and apolo, 2 months old. he graduated in Physical Education with the help of fies (a program of the ministry of education for funding the higher education of the undergraduate students). weslley is also a DJ in the rap group ‘falange’. 

murilo de quadros jesus, 28 years old, teacher, graduated in portuguese and english languages (UTFPR) and lives in curitiba.

jucimara fausto dos santos, cook born in palotina. she dedicated her life to cooking and it was in a cooking contest at vigília lula livre (a civil movement supported by several brazilian social movements and union entities to help free lula from the prision) that jucimara was called to make bread. today she cooks for the employees’ association of the state university of maringá.

flávio pereira, 50 years old, from pinhalão - paraná. he is an artisan and was at the vigília lula livre for 580 days helping with daily activities.

aline sousa passing the sash.

this was honestly one of the most beautiful moments in brazil’s history.

(in my own succession timeline in my head) Shivs wedding happened at the beginning of the year. She explains how Caroline guilt tripped her into having it in England during the cold for her. I think its interesting that Caroline then (later that year in the summer) chose to have her own wedding in warm and sunny Italy herself. When Roman and shiv where talking about the wedding and about their mom having a prenup, they talk about how the relationship and engagement happened so fast and they need to make sure she gets a prenup incase she's "getting swept off her feet". I wonder if in some wierd mother-daughter-competitve way, caroline wanted to one up Shivs wedding a couple of months after it happened. Caroline and Rory(who wasn't the same man she took to Shivs wedding) relationship seemed slot like shiv and Tom's relationship with Rory being more into the wedding than Caroline and being in awe of her wealth and connection to the powerful, connected and wealthy Roys (kinda like tom). In my mind I think shivr felt this back hand of a wedding so close to hers in a more romantic and warm place after being made to have it in cold England and maybe she decided to wear white to the wedding to stick it to her mother a bit

I love how the succession season three finale features none of the characters paying respect to the fact that they’re at a royal wedding. Tom and Greg had matching suits that would make you think they were both the groom. Connor proposed to Willa in front of everyone. Greg called Roman a pervert in front of a Contessa. Roman and Logan spent half the wedding away making a business deal. Half of them skip the reception. Shiv actually wore a white dress to her own mother’s wedding.

something about the scene always makes me smile. So cute.

He gets it
