This quarter at school has been really full and I haven't been as diligent a reporter as I'd like to be. But, this one was staring me in the face and I couldn't say no.
The Brazilian government has released photos of a few of the estimated 68 "uncontacted" tribes -- although the term should be "bad idea to contact" tribes because they try to kill us if we come too close -- in hopes of making their plight well-known and encourage people to keep their distance.
My first thought was: if you're trying to be respectful and keep them isolated, then what are you doing flying over taking pictures!?
