Overview

Leci Brandão is a pioneer of socially conscious music in Brazil. A samba singer, communist party activist and the second black deputy elected in the history of the Legislative Assembly of São Paulo, she transformed her life into a fight for more diversity. As she herself says, "samba is Brazil's identity card". Several personalities reflect on the importance of Leci, at 80 years of age and with 50 years of career, in building a Brazil with less hate and more opportunities.
