Do quilombo pra favela - Alimento para a resistência negra

In the Vale do Ribeira, in the southeast of São Paulo, a cooperative of quilombola farmers came together to minimize the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. For income generation and food security, they developed an emergency plan to distribute organic food produced in their traditional fields to vulnerable families, helping to preserve the Atlantic Forest. In this way, quilombo (traditional Afro-Brazilian communities) and favela (urban slum) communities, which seemed distant, became partners in similar struggles.
