Maloka Elétrika on Elsie Houston 

For readers of Portuguese, Maloka Elétrika has a post about Elsie Houston that highlights her revolutionary spirit. It includes an excerpt from Pagu's journal about the French People's Front demonstration on July 14, 1935 (unfortunately, it doesn't translate well in BabelFish)

E a lembrança da noite de há doze anos quando Paris inteira cantava nas ruas a glória de ter sido realizado em suas ruas a Grande Revolução, quando fomos buscar Elsie Houston no seu pequenino apartamento onde ela estava sozinha, para que viesse para a rua cantar com a sua voz educadíssima na pauta da Carmagnole.


(It also features a little remix using an excerpt from one of Elsie Houston's cocos, a portrait that I had never seen before by Flavio de Carvalho, as well as a link to my page(for which I am grateful--thank you, Maloka Elétrika)).
