episode description

In this episode of Outpost we travel to Sao Paulo, Brazil; and El Alto, Bolivia to look at how people are taking back the power – at least a little bit – in order to shape the world they live in. We travel to Sao Paulo with celebrity and LGBT advocate Carmen Carrera to meet the transgender community in Brazil and understand how they're fighting for acceptance and to protect themselves from a strikingly high rate of violence against the community. And Gabriel Leigh travels to the high plain of Bolivia to meet the indigenous Aymara people shaping their new city of El Alto through its architecture, in stark contrast to the European traditions of next-door capital La Paz, and claiming the land as theirs in the process.
