"It should not be necessary here to site statistics to show how many Brazilians (and Latin Americans in general) are "living corpses," "shadows" of human beings, hopeless men, women, and children victimized by an endless "invisible war" in which their remnants of life devoured by tuberculosis, schistosomiasis, infant diarrhea...by the myriad diseases of poverty (most of which in the terminology of the oppressors are called "tropical diseases")...[Many] fear that in facing the needs and suffering of the world we may simply adopt an emotional protest in favor of palliating the manifestations and symptoms of poverty and injustice without going on to analyze the causes of the latter, to denounce a regime which encompasses this injustice and engenders this poverty."
At the risk of plagarism, I'll leave it to you guys to decide from where this quote was derived. No Googling, Yahoo, etc....that's cheating :o).
