I am a journalist since 2004 and a History graduation student since 2016. In 2004, at the age of 18, I co-founded a newspaper called O Aporema, at the Journalism School at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, in south of Brazil. Highlight for the coverage of the editions of the World Social Forum. Also during this period, I installed community radios in different parts of Porto Alegre. From 2006 to 2008, I was a reporter and producer for BandNewsFM, Rádio Bandeirantes AM and Rádio da Universidade da UFRGS, with an emphasis on reporting on city, politics and sport in Rio Grande do Sul. From 2008 to 2013, I worked at TV Globo, the biggest brazillian broadcaster, as editor and producer. At SporTV, my most interesting project was the series "Brasil Fora de Série", which went through almost all states in the country to show the culture of football as a fundamental identity character of Brazilians. In 2013, after the popular riots, I resigned from Globo in disagreement with the editorial line of the station, attacking the protesters and the political project chosen by the population at the federal level. From 2014, as a freelancer, I participated in activist journalism movements, such as Mídia Ninja and Free Journalists. I developed a project for long reports, called Jornalismo em Pé, in defense of dignity and human rights. Still as a freelancer, I have worked for 6 years for the Brazilian Paralympic Committee and for the International Paralympic Committee - highlighting the coverage of the Rio 2016 Paralympics. About politics, Rio de Janeiro and History, I wrote reports for sites like UOL, Punteiro Izquierdo, Sul21, The Intercept Brasil, Magazine of the Movement of the Homeless Workers and Greenpeace. I participated in coverage such as the Mariana dam disaster, the impeachment of Dilma Roussef in Brasília and the police violence in Rio. As a sports journalist, I was a producer, screenwriter and editor of TV and Internet series. In 2014, I scripted and edited the series Nem Tudo É Grenal, about Football History in Rio Grande do Sul. In 2019, I produced and edited a series In Search of America for Sport Club Internacional, which contains a history of football in cities where the club dispute the 2019 Libertadores de América. Recently, I have been developing videos on Virtual Reality technology, for immersive glasses in 360 degrees. I have already produced a video for Internacional and another for Flamengo's official stores - in this case, about the club's historic 2019 season, with the titles of the Brazilian National Championships and Libertadores. Since 2016, I have graduated in History at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro with special interest in the history of Rio de Janeiro and Brazil.
Paolo Guerrero is not just a name in Peru. It is the easiest way to win a smile in a conversation or tribute in newspapers and TV shows. In this episode of In Search of America, we tell you a little of this feeling, which is born in the streets of Chorrillos, in Lima, and reaches Inter's number 9 shirt.
Last chapter of Brazil Out of Series: a long trip with 15 stopovers in a country that shows, every weekend, why it is called the country of football. The last proof of that came from the welcoming Natal, city of ABC, champion of the third division of the Brazilian Championship of 2010.
In the days following the Samarco disaster, our report goes to Mariana and travels along the Rio Doce to hear the story of those affected. We discover that the greed for money and the negligence of the company and government are behind the biggest environmental disaster in the history of Brazil.
