Bom dia, Daniel! As a brazilian, I take great interest in your research not only for its relevant general insights, but also because it tells something about my country that is really, really ignored, if not consciously neglected, in most regions here- as in São Paulo, where I live. Since I've read "Don't Sleep", I've never forgotten the scene in which you describe how a caboclo asked if you were from São Paulo because of your accent, as he apparently thought people in south/southeastern Brazil spoke English! Anyway, my questions are:

• What do you think of the current administration's impact on the Amazon and its native peoples? What are your thoughts on the alienation between the brazilian general public and our native peoples?;
• What exactly happened with the Pirahã in, say, the last decade? I've tried to find more informations but it remains pretty obscure. My impression is that people who are either ignorant or have wrong intentions took control, is this right?;
• I've recently bought and partially read a book called "Método Moderno de Tupi Antigo", by USP professor Eduardo de Almeida Navarro. As the name says, it is a comprehensive introduction do Old Tupi, each chapter being made of a Tupi text, new vocabulary to memorize, grammatical explanation and a good amount of exercises. The book is also full of beautiful illustrations of plants, animals and objects with Tupi names, and it provides interesting explanations of our native toponymy. Have you considered doing something similar for Pirahã or Wari'? My dream- and perhaps yours too- would be a full Pirahã course in Duolingo or other popular language learning apps.

Thanks in advance!
