I’m Still Here: Repression and Remembrance in Brazil

2,263 words While Trump’s style continues to dazzle and seemingly lay waste the leftists, both in America and abroad, a recent film has captivated the critics and the box office, dealing, as it does, with political repression.

The Wages of Epstein Hysteria
