which is why my son wants emigrated from you over that was i want to take you want to johnny will spending a 200 years of german immigration in brazil, dialing moya, who but as you so i have family in brazil and germany, i had no contacts for almost a century. it wasn't until many years off to my grandmother's death was it was a sudden that's when i finally met my mother's close relative so much. my family history is one of migrations. that's what we'll be exploring on our journey. the hopes? yeah, my heart was pounding and how people's minds, the shaped my history. for tooth progress was seen is tied to european nice ation. not just of customs and traditions, but of the population itself. the

filming in brazil, in april 2024. we had no way of knowing that once in a century, catastrophe was about to hit my home state of rio grande to do so. places i had visited with a camera crews were piece of must, in some waters, just days later, people would lose their homes. and sometimes even that lives the thought journey begins before best modem, 1000 kilometers. if the north south palo is in the mega city melting point and the cultural and economic call to present it time to more than 12000000 people over the centuries, people have come here from complex countries. some came voluntarily from europe or asia. others would come to consent to brazil as slaves. around 1900, the city experienced a huge influx of immigrants,

new come as drove industrialization and up in ice ation. the focus of the countries immigration museum located on an historically significant railroad line. yet is that the main check right here on this platform is where the trains from the point of santos arrived. hiring immigrant, that sort of deals. and that's what i got from 1897 until the 19 seventy's. this was brazil's largest home immigrants, people's luggage would be disinfected. here. you arrivals would be registered and given medical checks, the posted under nickels, productive on stove was built to comfortably house 2 to 3000 people. but by the end of the 19th century, it was accommodating between 8010000 people on a given day. possibly think there was a lot of tension on the part of the immigrants, the workers, and also the native people. what are the, what is the, there was a fear of epidemics and of foreigners to get to me. so this place reminds us of the

history of immigration as a whole. and we thought all the associated hope and suffering. and i still told them that i thought of the disability and contains all those stories i've made. and then we thought of children, what's that almost for the yep, l a co more the for that as we started getting multiple fires broke out in the hospital caused by the immigrants on authorized cooking. the names of 12000 democrats are engraved on the museums names, but one name i con find is that of my grandmother, edith, who arrived here in 1925. the 1000 kilometers south is the town of capital farm in nova, i'm bogo in the state of rio crunch. i do so this is where i grew up with my parents live. my grandma either lived here for almost 30 years until her dad in 1997. the family lost contact with my grandma sibling soft to

the 2nd well, the 1980s my father attempted to track down our relatives in germany, unsuccessfully the. in portugal, i wrote a letter in portugal, most of which my mother translated into german. we sent it to fishback the town where my mother, real employees, muscle memory, months later we got a reply or 2 of my mother's sisters had already died. i was there, mo, helped you in front of your brother had died in the war and there was no information about the 3rd. so you also, i'd be more than i gave you all. so all contacts had been lost. it will disappear though home. cynthia long tail mice comes off. the in fact the nice is in grand niece of mine. grandma ita live in this small town and

the german state typically almost sucks. any one thing we have in common with oper? zillion family is the food the fact that we found each other in 2021 is nothing short of a miracle. i'd finished studying in germany and in order to apply for citizenship, i'd requested documents from the far it is in my grandmas best place. just so happened that the same official was also contacted by my grandmas german niece who was making a family tree. well, that's how it was handling. i finally found someone related to on the ita to you that through good for decades my grandma eda was a gap in the family story. she had emigrated to brazil with foster parents in 1925 while have full biological siblings. stayed with that father in germany. she never sold them again at em gods and never got to meet her aunt. now and god has met me

eat his grandson. she suddenly has a present in in the family. most of my grandmother was born in this small town in northern germany. she was baptized in this church. but why couldn't she stay with a father and a siblings? the one of us has been what happened to the family is why was my grandma? i don't, it's not something that's fun. sick from 9 to 120 to 1925 the odd years. you can only play, especially here in the country side. it wasn't easy to raise children without some of that. and auntie need as methods deluge getting fast to toby's tom's on the ground was left alone with 5 children. so he left visually in the care of the house, soak family from the from the they had full stick. a lot of these lights that they went to present was even those given you know,

once and 1925 to have folks emigrated to brazil with initial effective she on the ship, pulled the union off coupon things to the local heritage society. we're able to get a sense of the town of fish back in the 19 twenty's. the type of family lived in this house. at that time, a few years off to germany, had lost the 1st world war. many people left that homeland in this region on a quote to the population decided to seek better lives in the new won't stop was often by my house and once continental europeans ologist emigration part, but occasionally by another emigrating to brazil or blame. awesome. yeah, she was less than 5 years old and the title of it as you get more than 7200000 people bought it ships to start new lives on the other side at the well for either and her new family. the journey took them via south town on to poto,

allegra in the state of rio grande are due to the, at the german immigration center stories like that. and my grandmother are collected and brought to life between 19201930, almost 75000 germans emigrated to present the the mice and yellowstone and most people left for economic reasons. and the economic crisis. hitler 1923. so that is a fun one, you know, the middle class has lost their wealth and many young people. so no hope for the weimar republic in the volume of apple leaks. and there were lots of families of farmers who wanted to continue working in agriculture. when seen a meant for them, south america is a good, a bad time of what happened. the united states no longer offered free landfill. in

fact, the land was extremely expensive there. but in brazil, that opportunity still existed in cuz even though i've even got a steven lucas and foster parents travel for over a month, that's how long it took to cross the atlantic. and those things the copying they slipped in, in 1925. we did look some things like this, relatively comfortable. it's a far cry from the sailing congo ships that have taken the 1st german colonists to brazil a 100 years of the and then people would be crammed together for several months and see of a lack of wind. the food supplies running out. and heaven forbid an outbreak of disease attach would simply be thrown overboard. the in 1824 of these 1st emigrants travelled 11000 kilometers to a completely new and another one was there in 18

o 8. the portuguese royal family had also landed the fleeing. napoleon and his army the country had been independent since 18. 22 will fight on petro are the 1st and his wife, leo, po, dina from austria to come to bass. response the prompt related south of the country and defended against naples, uruguay and argentina. brazil, recruited and foreign colonists, the ones is much of a skill level one. we live in brazil open that sound to you are being migration is that was that the end of slavery was assigned to those i stuff like i was when needed on the gulf. the plantation all started sounded by the f. what is in the fridge for sale was among the last countries to advantage slavery until 1888 slight africans, and the 2 sentence worked on the countries con patients the

option to describe a wide so can see the abolition of slavery in brazil dragged on for several decades, it was generally accepted that it was an obsolete model that slavery could no longer be maintained in the long term. and it was becoming increasingly difficult to get new slaves because of the british blockade of the slave trade. recada that raised the question for them of where to find new workers who were cheap and obedient. because when we always accept the happenings always have to go as well. my wife's clifton says the empire of brazil actively recruited to your opinions, enticing them with free passage and free finding. the end of the taxes by 18. 3111 south german speaking immigrants had a right to brazil the, the 19th century governments was deeply racist. so keeping lines of formerly in slave to people of african origin was on the think of it, don't, you know, let me do the up each section just get us or to stay in europe and immigration

policy cemented the idea. then 3 labor was performed by white workers. that's the legacy. it has the state in the history of brazilian society, the u. s. a. and there's a complex race, a stereotype that's going to mentally associates being black in this country with slavery alone. and able to look at as you one of the main chess club. but in fact, these in slaved men and women with the most import, the people, and the development of the sales specialist with the as when slavery was abolished in 1898, formerly in slight people, was systematically excluded by the white tenant of no plans of integrating them into society, they began to free lives as a 2nd class citizens in the grubbing slumbers of the big cities. even today, millions of afro resilience live in preparing circumstances. the under represented

in politics, business, science and culture. this too is a consequence of 19th century immigration policy, and it's aimed to quote, modernize and quote, the country flux with voted life because it's an oil piece of progress we've seen as tied to european isaiah of customs and traditions of the population itself about this issue racist ideas played a crucial role. and when the idea was a so called a white lining of the population, in a brazil that was made up of very different communities. according to the thinking of the time this was seen as negative and a hindrance to development and iga t d and picking on him. and that's why they wanted europeans and not just the, any european level, but especially central europeans and you guys, they were seen as virtuous. part of working on ambition and obedient. when that made them desirable subjects, these guns, when one of the focal point was the german state, because it was known,

there were lots of with more people there which in to and then there was pressure to emigrate and lloyd, the funeral identity often to come home a savannah. busy at the beginning of the 19th century, the french and brenda pony on town to europe, into a thoughtful profit. he was rife, in many regions and full hobbies, 70 main things west of the same time the population was growing, which increased food shortages and unemployment. the one example is conflict in what's now the german state of ryan and polite tonight. the man is a small town that still has close ties to something for sale. 200 years ago. the fast colon is set out from this area of to be actively recruited by the present and government. the best bottom conclusions that sale by what mostly they were skilled farmers are also

on their own houses. and o d. lloyd, people had to sell their houses to afford to emigrate, and so they weren't the poorest of the poor. the money had to come from somewhere and that's good was the way i called them. you could say they were social immobile, even the they felt they'd be better off somewhere else as a, the more willing to make a new start. and then of course, there were also some very poor people by the standards of the time about the communities were often have a windows people immigrated and they wanted to solve social problems using immigration the. so to all the populum audio that's in the dish was there are lots of examples of people don't like to talk about it, who is and they'll get to the device. going to get these guns we back to school today, like many places in germany. the town of simon has itself become home to immigrants in search of a bench, a line, the back in 1824. the people of huntsville cope to find that that's

a life in selling the poto and southern brazil. the then further it says in men room and the father, it's more like this monument was erected in 1924 on the 39 1st german immigrants and she got all arrived on july the 25th 18, $24.00 in sonya poto in the state of rio grande producer that on the banks of 3 of those cmos is and i'm also the result the seems to take a longer camp at us. the shows me off to we came here to film the area was find massive flooding the west in the history of rio grande ya to devastate. it's only a photo, a city of $200000.00 inhabitants and the cradle of german immigration. the

when we visited at the beginning of april, the museum was still intact. morning. welcome to the museum takes us back to the 1824. on july, the 25th 8 families and a few single man arrived here. towards the end of the year, the number rose to $126.00. they were farmers, craft people and soldiers that came to cultivate the land and secured the borders. this is what they brought us fellows yours. you know by today's standards, it's a big trunk quad. with an 8124. it was the entire family filled. their whole life with a near latino kid. as you might have been to probably the day and is that the, the museum has collected 10000 don't. jackson, thousands of documents, sports and music equipment is especially important to the germans. the immigrants

also brought something else with them to brazil, that protestant religion is the most important exhibit until i show can you get shows that they didn't just have practical things with them. but i took a look over it after all, dismissal was the most crucial thing. in terms of survival, i have to give somebody, this is a bible from the 1765, and they seem to provide itself with sage, from the recent fonts for the museum was badly hit, centuries of immigration, history said match even 200 years ago founding a colony right on the river proved to be a bad idea. the more cycle, you know here, usually i'm of the travelers who passed through reported to the provincial government that they've chosen location that couldn't have been worse. video to balance disappeared. 3 times the river flooded to view, the town would be under water stock. for all 3 co trespass has written several

books about the german immigrants and decisive influence on something for sale. the small farm is growing crops and raising livestock. they were the pioneers of family farming, which still today supply 70 percent of brazil's food. it was a hard life, especially for women, the going to give you the skin conditional swap, pocketed out of everyone who left their homeland and emigrated to. so the women suffered the most and invited scott, the dad is keen. there are several letters for women who really struggle because of domestic problems. i mean, that is something that think of so many were pregnant when they emigrate at home graphic that they had to look under 516, sometimes as many as 10 children. i mean, and so hopefully that will arrow. but i don't want that in mind. these are families from a region that was left extremely poor following the napoleonic wars. if as you get, this was the top 2 of them which allowed the people were left disabled traumatized because the women were the spying american family,

including the children. this had disagreed that been shouting, they were absolutely really here, major might or you know, whether in the field. so the fact or is it taught to overestimate the role women playing in the economic bryce of the region, which today is one of the most developed in order to present the architectural legacy of german immigration can be seen in many small towns in rio rancho. do so the, the german traditions have survived annual charge as opposed to camps as india, regional dialect of homes. look to these days old recipients come together to santa france. you can also taste the german cultural heritage like here at the cafe colonial follow sy. in morrow going to the and we think that's funny. it reminds me of my

child tables. and then there's some of the things here that i liked it on the sausage. look for that here. the apple strudel, who the fried pastry, the chaos they all come, a sausage near to who could ask or anything along with like, you know, somebody's not the next stop on out. johnny is palmetto g in the state of santa catalina, any 18 sixty's? germans from palmer rainier, settled in this sub tropical region. in total, about $300000.00 germans found a new home in brazil, the psalm around palmetto, cheese still, and almost the same lives man ancestors did running family farms instead of laundry states. and mona coaches, the, among other things, the z that family row, palm trees meeting hung at the beginning,

the problems really saved people we sent and they came out here to the jungle. how there was nothing on the phone. com, but 1st they survived by hunting animals fishing in and from fruits and palm hearts . tom had the palms and yes for the building the leaves for sleeping on. and we may as for that the on help sadly see as the 21st century bombing alone wouldn't be enough to support them. another important income source of the taurus to come here to get an impression of what life was like . for the 1st german immigrants, the typical mind is shifted utilities, maybe later. so my story to the tour at all, it's about the hudson's. i tell them how we live, where we came from and how things have changed. and the yeah, home is i'm just the children can make money from tourism and then it's sustainable

housing. yeah. so then that to this was nice without the they will leave and move to the big city or somewhere i go to a stop and know there's a but he's thing as a vid shot. but i think the way we're using tourism means that we can carry on. that's the see is i'm in 2 reasons why they get into mold and 90 percent of commodity residents are of german descent. german culture and language are important to you. the german is a compulsory subject to this bilingual school. hello, the regional medical center. i really am apprised by that curiosity about how many of us and how nicely they can speak a language that i know them other tongue jerome. uh, you know,

well my dad lives in reedsville isn't the tradition of schooling, bro, find a german immigrants continues to have an impact. literacy rates and the regions they samples are among the highest in the country when pressed. so for me to put attention to previous to the education was very important to the german government . wherever the colony was established, they built 2 things that were fundamental to their way of life. coming back to that church and a school categories, guys called google very often, the government didn't need bids and promises including when it came to providing an education system for the immigrant. so those are colonies, had a self funded called the jetta fuels have a blessed record. that's why for a long time, so many of them kept them. german is their 1st language. i'm not able to get you know for to get the why my brazilian family. no longer speaks german, what the nazis have to do with it. and what consequences did german immigration

have for the indigenous peoples? whole this and more, next time. up to about journey through 200 years of german brazilian history, the

legal world call themselves the blacksmith. they neighbor away, it'd be olympic construction sites. now they are fighting for them, tries to obtain a single status to get all the training session prussia because they know it's west of fine, you know, stuff in 30 minutes on the w traditional cultures. and you'll find maybe what role does culture play versus modernization?

we're asking african cultures at risk of being erased in the quest for globalization africa was that tough to, to get it started. so this is all they have told us nothing else has been sold to us. okay. okay. what can you do? you think it's the contribution to the see that's of interest to the 77 percent and 60 minutes on d w, the drilling innovation, there's a palestinian living on. we don't expect much living with a bare minimum without civil rights and with no prospect. this is not a good environment. yeah, no. i know my children and favorite shadows, stats, august 3rd, on the w. conflict crises,

every single connection mapped out shows the geopolitical reality. the on the board is what makes things the way they are mapped out, navigating a changing world. now on youtube, the since its creation in 1961 great fund and supporting people on a daily basis in more than a 100 countries. financing projects in various does move ranging from infrastructure to health and communication. these institutions name to contribute their allocation of all the tea and the promotion sustainable develop the,

this is the, the news mine from brother and come from a higher secure, small, high profile support for have paid. so when the democratic nomination for president, the car in the us, vice president is moving fast to secure the backing. she needs some leading democrats on the campaign donations with how she's done. you know, the race for the nomination was fun, vice president 5 is decision not to seek re election, any democrats and not hiding face as a socialist and patry on. so we got to see what was the mission is to protect our nation's leaders. on july 13th we found

a head of the us being another self congress.
