Armed Men Approach Young Man Outside Clinic, Shoot Him Dead
Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil A 21-year-old man, Raimundo d.S.S.J., was waiting outside a polyclinic for medical treatment when three armed men arrived on motorcycles. The men approached Raimundo, and seemed to try and force him towards the entry-exit gate. Raimundo resisted, however, and he was ultimately shot multiple times. |

Re: Armed Men Approach Young Man Outside Clinic, Shoot Him Dead
In Bahia, youth dyeing their hair blonde/platinum was once a look associated strictly with favelas but has been completely reclaimed. For Afro-Brazilian youth in Feira de Santana, dyeing their hair blonde or platinum is an act of aesthetic autonomy, self-expression and pride in their community culture. And pairing bleached hair with an abundance of tattoos is a deliberate visual armor. It represents an elevated status of local authenticity, street style and artistic rebellion. |
