Socrates: The Footballer Who Changed Brazil Forever

Can football play a role in changing society? Possibly. One striking example takes us across the ocean and back four decades. In the early 1980s, Brazil was living in a brutal military dictatorship. One oppositional movement became visible to a wide audience all over the country, shouting for democracy and fueling the fire for the masses.

He was good footballer but very slow, lacked intensity. An Italian club tried him in their championship, but quickly realized that Italy was not for him.
The other matters, he got a degree which was rare for footballer at the time, and then choose to be a communist for real, ideology got the better of him. Happens to many
