Photo of artistical rendering of a Preto Velho - Old Negro Slave - taken from the Raiz Cultural (Cultural Roots) Blog The dates first:   January 20 - Oxóssi February 2 - Iemanjá Day Bahia / Iguaçu April 23 - Ogum May 13 - Pretos Velhos (Old Negroes) June 13 - Xangô July 26 - Oxum September 27 - Saints Cosmas and Damian October 12 - Erê Children's Fest November 02 - Omulú November 15 – Umbanda’s Foundation / Flag Day December 04 - Iansã (Yansan) December 12 - Iemanjá (Yemanja) 25/12 - Oxalá Now some words on the dates: These are not holydays in the sense that shops close, children do not go to school and offices normally do not have to open.

Umbanda and Candomblé Temples (Houses) in Foz do Iguaçu: address list

"We do not need a cathedral. Men make cathedral. The little corner in the capoeira (second growth forest around the house) is god-made and all we need". Foz do Iguaçu is said to have 42 "houses". Each "house" is independent. There is no hierarchy. Houses do cooperate among them. Each house is presided over by a babalorisha (Babalorixá) or Yalorisha (Ialorixá). Bab...

Poor Niagara! Has Eleanor Roosevelt ever been to Iguassu Falls?

Image
Photo from the US Embassy Brazil's FLICKR Gallery showing Eleanor Roosevelt, with Natal's Bishop Marcolino Dantas and General Gomes (in uniform) possibly translating. Upon seeing Iguassu Falls, Eleanor Roosevelt is reported to have said: Poor Niagara! You will find that in Spanish, Portuguese, French and possibly other languages. Everyone, when trying to learn about Iguassu Falls, will hear this Poor Niagara – Iguassu Story. What is happening hear now is that I have launched a campaign, through several of my blogs trying to find out whether this is true or false and what is the context in which the first lady said that. US First lady Eleanor Roosevelt visited Brazil in March 14-17 in 1944. She flew from the US over the Caribbean, made stops at some islands and for sure visited Trinidad and Tobago. From TT the First lady flew to Brazil entering the country through Belem – at the mouth of the Amazon River. Eleanor Roosevelt’s Belem visit has been well documented in Brazil. ...
