  • Mónica ‘Cori’ Jiménez is a single mother with five children. "I grew up alone, in the streets," she said. "I never stole anything and I never took drugs." She survives on government assistance and the community soup kitchen. "If it didn’t exist, I don’t know what would have happened to my life and to the lives of my children." <br />
She used to be a 'cartonera' in downtown Buenos Aires for 15 years. She used to take her children out to beg until, in an argument, her older daughter convinced her that it was wrong. Cori combed trash at the municipal trash dump for three months, but she says she stopped because police beat her often and once shot her in the leg with a rubber bullet. After a childhood of mistreatment, Cori hopes life in 8 de Mayo will offer something better to her kids. <br />
"I am 30 and I already want to die," she told a visitor, slowly and deliberately, with her eyes fixed on the ground. "I want my children to be someone in life."

  • Residents chat at the neighborhood's community center. <br />
People from Ocho de Mayo point out with pride the progress made since the settlement was created in1998. From the beginning, there was a deliberate planning. The first settlers left space for a community center. Each new family was given a plot of land arranged along wide streets. Planners did not want narrow alleys between houses as in Brazilian favelas. A commission, with a delegate representing each block, made rules. Nearby settlements now use 8 de Mayo as a model.

  • An Indonesian man dressed up as a German Waffen-SS sergeant takes a break and smokes a cigarette during a gathering of re-enactment enthusiasts in Cibubur, East Jakarta, Indonesia.<br />
Members of the 'Niederlande Kampfgruppe' group meet regularly to re-enact battles wearing Nazi Germany military uniforms and produce their own photos and videos. They claim that they do not do this because they identify ideologically with the Nazis, but because they are interested in World War II and military history. According to them, there is historical evidence that at least one Indonesian person was part of the 'Freiwilligen Legion Niederlande', the Dutch arm of the Waffen-SS, during World War II. Similar re-enactment groups exist in several cities across Indonesia, using the uniforms of Dutch, German and Japanese troops.
