Today Im sitting quiet in gratitude for those ones that walked here before me. Because of them I exist, I am here.
I honour this woman not just today but everday and think of her when there are challenge times, Bárbara Pereira de Alencar, one of my ancestors who made me so proud of the lineage I carry in my blood.
Bárbara de Alencar was a revolutionary heroine recognised as the first female political prisioner fighting for the independence from Portugal. She was kept in prison and tortured.
I wish I would have a pinch of her bravery at a time in history when women didn't have any rights
