RICHARD LAPPER is an independent journalist and consultant. Originally from Sheffield, Richard is the author of Beef, Bible and Bullets: Brazil in the Age of Bolsonaro. Originally published in 2021, the paperback is now available and comes at a time when the spotlight is on Brazil with respect to the alarming depletion and destruction of the Amazon and why it is happening at such an uncontrolled pace.
Richard spent many years living and working in Central and South America, particularly Brazil. He now lives in Wapping and I caught up with him to walk and talk about writing during the lockdown, Brazil, the Amazon, and the horrific murders of his good friend and journalist Dominic (Dom) Phillips, and advocate for the indigenous people Bruno Pereira. Both men were raising awareness of the need to protect the Amazon forest and its indigenous people from lawlessness and a relentless onslaught of destruction, to ensure the survival of these important interlocking eco systems for the future.
Podcast episodes 63 and 64 are dedicted to DOM PHILLIPS and BRUNO PEREIRA for their commitment, bravery and beliefs in adversity.
This is Part 1 of 2 podcast episodes with Richard Lapper.
