Learn about Brazil's Landless Workers Movement (MST), Homeless Movement (FIST), and projects to transform poverty-stricken communities. A presentation by local human rights activists recently returned from Brazil will include slides, discussion and a film.

"The Miracle of Candeal." is part documentary and part cinematic parable, and is the story of how the solidarity, struggle and efforts of a small group of individuals can change and improve the life of an entire community.
