In recent days, we unpacked a shipment of dozens of fascinating pieces of ephemera gathered across different regions of Brazil by our colleagues at at the Library of Congress Office in Rio de Janeiro.

Items address a wide variety of timely topics including indigenous rights, women’s rights, anti-racism, and COVID-19 public education. Also included are several political campaign propaganda pieces for the 2022 general election.

All of the newly received pieces will be digitized and added to the Digital Archive of Latin American and Caribbean Ephemera, a rapidly growing repository that already contains over a thousand pieces from Brazil. Most of them were obtained thanks to the collaboration with LC Rio. Click here to view the Brazilian content.
