Prejudice and Greed - Gated Communities - Brazil - 3/3
Prejudice and Greed: The Roots of False Gated Communities and the Privatization of Public Spaces in Bahia-Brazil A Bahia North Shore Community Mobilization Film Advocating for the Right of Free Access to Public Areas In the Brazilian state of Bahia, some of the worst aspects of Brazil #39;s land history are being repeated. Local governments are colluding in the privatization of beaches and other public lands. Housing subdivisions are transformed overnight into huge gated communities. These gated communities arent registered as such. They are what we call here false gated communities. The result of almost two years of work, the documentary Prejudice and Greed: The Roots of False Gated Communities and the Privatization of Public Spaces in Brazil exposes these illegalities from the perspective of the affected society. The film was independently made, with the participation of key community leaders. This story is told by activists and citizens, victims of these outrages committed by false gated communities. They have come together to challenge the violation of their rights and expose the illegal practice of appropriation of public land, racism, environmental violations and illicit profiteering. They demand their right to access public space.
