É Carnaval! by Doug Auwarter for BrazilMax "Carnaval season begins after Reveillon, Brazil’s New Year’s celebration, and in Rio, kicks into high gear late in January on “Dia de São Sebastião,” the day of Saint Sebastian, patron saint of Rio de Janeiro. " Brazzil.com Rio+Carnaval by google returns over 600 links including their forum but the malware cost may not be worth it
"To an outsider, it looks like so much indulgence, but for those who live in the favelas where the samba was born, Carnival invokes a fierce sense of tradition, a unifying force that gives political, emotional, and even spiritual nourishment to those who feel deeply disenfranchisedfrom the (mostly white) center of power."

The first group to call itself an Escola de Samba (Samba School) was a group known as Deixa Falar [“Leaves it To speak”], which came from the district of Estacio on the hill above Praca Onze. The date of formation was the 12th of August 1928 and the idea was the leaders wished to be known as teachers or professors. The founder of Deixa Falar, Ismael Silva, said 'Now we weren't just some bloco, we were a SAMBA SCHOOL!' In the Journal of Brazil in 1931, Deixa Falar was referred to as a 'pretty and disciplined rancho'; in 1932 Deixa Falar was calling itself a 'Rancho-Escola'. They first paraded in Praça Onze in the carnivals of 1929. The carnaval grew in 1930 and 1931 which Deixa Falar won in both years. arrived to participate of the first competition of the Rio Schools of Samba, organized in 1932 by Jornal Mundo Sportivo The well detailed story of samba culture giving us the collective power of song, dance and divinities to transform and unite a nation we think the birth of bossa nova and Rio beach bikinis at the dawn of the 60's is a story for everyone
