#reco  Watch Behind Bars Brazil Geraldo Beltrão
LINK:  https://youtu.be/AWQmMr2z-hs 

João Pessoa, located at the easternmost point of the Americas, is the capital of Paraiba, one of Brazil's poorest regions. While its beaches attract numerous tourists, crime rates escalate inland, with over 26 murders per 100,000 residents annually. 

In recent years, Paraíba has emphasized re-socialization efforts. Programs allow prisoners to complete their education, participate in "remission through reading" to shorten sentences, and engage in prison employment. These initiatives aim to build confidence and provide a path to rehabilitation, offering inmates a chance at a new life beyond the bars.

#new  The City Without Air: Surviving the World’s Highest Metropolis LINK:  https://youtu.be/Itou-eCc8ww 

La Paz is the highest (administrative) capital city in the world, with the highest neighbourhoods reaching 4,000 metres above sea level! Here, you feel the altitude and blood thumping in your head as soon as you get off the airplane. With an altitude difference of more than 1,000 metres between the top and the bottom of the city, it's hard to keep your heart rate down, as going anywhere involves a steep slope and  hundreds of steps.
Another surprising fact: La Paz is the only city where the poor live in the higher part of town and look down on the rich neighbourhoods below. 

Battling vertigo and breathlessness, Alexandra, and her hosts Julia and Franz, will explore this disorienting city to try and understand how the inhabitants of La Paz have managed to adapt to living here.
