the simply brilliant Rafael Campos Rocha´s Kriança Índia
without a doubt the most important Brazilian comic of the century
I just declared a national holiday today! Not one, but two editions of the simply brilliant Rafael Campos Rocha arrived for me: KRIANÇA ÍNDIA, without a doubt the most important Brazilian comic of the century, produced during the dark days of the obscurantist tyranny of the most sinister government, with a vile and low character that we have news. To get an idea of his total disregard for the lives of those who suffer and die, suffice it to say that under Bolsonaro, deaths of Yanomami Indians due to malnutrition increased by an impressive 331%! Rafael, with his moving romantic idealism, feels alone against the barbarian hordes and has washed the souls of all those who are indignant against the atrocities and moral horror of authoritarianism. As Glauber Rocha would say, “art is courage”. My admiration and infinite gratitude to the fearless Rafael Campos Rocha, once again, today and always
