Dr Anastasios Tamis, researcher and emeritus professor of the history of the Greek Diaspora based in Melbourne, Australia, spoke about Labour Day as it is celebrated in Brazil and about several prominent Greeks who migrated there from Constantinople. Among them were Georgios Xylaras, as well as gold prospectors such as Grigoris Haidos, who settled in the Amazon.
He shared these insights on Voice of Greece radio during the program “Our Global Voice” with Dimitris Kontogiannis.
