Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Mar 21 (EFE).- (Camera: Leandro Sant'anna). A far cry from the image of violence and lack of security in Rio de Janeiro's poor neighborhoods, the "favela" or shantytown of Tavares Bastos is a peaceful community without drug trafficking or militias (paramilitary groups) and reflects the great contrasts of Brazilian society with the flavor of jazz, urban art, feminism and the neighborhood.
