BRAZIL-QUILOMBO-V?O DE ALMAS
TO GO WITH AFP STORY Quilombola women wash clothes in the White River in V?o de Almas, Brazil, on May 20, 2009. Quilombolas are the members of a quilombo --communities formed by escaped slaves during the Portuguese colonialism-- and V?o de Almas (Space of Souls) is the most isolated quilombo of the Kalunga community, a territory of 2,530 km2 of mountains and rivers located 400 km north of the Brazilian capital, Brasilia. Like most areas of the descendants of slavery, the 400 families living on V?o de Almas pay onerously their historical isolation: no road, water, electricity, telephone or doctor. State schools are in permanent teaching staff deficit in this region. AFP PHOTO/Evaristo Sa
