- Hunger skyrocketed in Brazil during the tenure of former president Jair Bolsonaro. 33 million Brazilians, some 15% of the entire country, are now food insecure according to official statistics. As Brazil's poorest were abandoned to deal with the overlapping crises of COVID-19 and inflation, the MST, or Brazil's Landless Workers' Movement, stepped in. With 20 million hectares of reclaimed land under their control across 1,200 municipalities, the MST possessed the necessary base of land and labor to effectively make a difference for millions of Brazilians. TRNN reports from the ground in Brazil to investigate how the largest social movement in the Americas is simultaneously eliminating hunger, seizing land for the tillers, and fighting for agrarian reform.

Only socialism works under a neo liberal economy ?
I gave up listening after 2 minutes. The best way to spoil a wonderful subject is to let some ignorant specialist of video games add to the video irritating soundtrack, totally unrelated to the subject at hand . Next time, ask someone who likes the sound of Brazilian voices, or don't add any "music" at all!
What the fuck are you saying. It is normal for video essays, video reports and all sorts of informative videos to have quiet background music. This video is fine. And there are subtitles even so you can read.
