Júlio Renato Lancellotti is one of the greatest Brazilian references in the fight for human rights and, in particular, for the rights of homeless people. He is an educationist and catholic priest and develops, together with social movements, practices of reception, education, health and defense of rights with homeless people in the city of São Paulo. In this interview, Father Júlio talks about a career spanning more than 40 years working with disregarded groups marked by conflict situations; highlights lessons learned and the contradictions that permeate this reality, while new issues and struggles are added; denounces the scenario of real estate speculation in the city and the impacts on the entire population. Due to his political stance, Father Júlio has already suffered many threats, but nothing stops him from continuing hand in hand with his brothers, fighting for rights, calling for love and recognition of all humanity.
