Hello, I would love to write for your guys.

My favourite figure history? This is a though one, but, being Portuguese. Aristides de Sousa Mendes. He went against the rules of fascist dictator Salazar and gave away visas to thousands of jews who could come to Portugal during WWII and saved their lives ending up in poverty because of that.

I don't judge the past, but it's important to add missing pieces to it and to give it perspectives that are hidden from the master's narrative of History.
