Reginalda Oliveira Costa, shows a photo of her mother, Carivaldina Oliveira da Costa, or "Aunt Uia" in Rasa quilombo in Buzios, Brazil, Sunday, July 12, 2020. Carivaldina was the matriarch of the Rasa quilombo on the northern coast of Rio de Janeiro state. The woman known as Tia Uia has often been described as a "living library" – the keeper of the community's stories and customs who could recall the days before Buzios became an elite seaside getaway, and who fought for the rights of those living in quilombos. She died of COVID-19 last month, aged 78. (AP Photo/Silvia Izquierdo)
