Léa tells the story of the Gasolineiras de Kebradas as it echoes through the walls of Colmeia, the women’s prison of Brasilia: “In 2019, I got involved with my sister Chitara in this crazy scheme she was caught up in. She had bought some land in a favela—oil pipes ran right under it, so she built this huge structure, tapped the oil, and started refining it right there and was making a lot of money. She set up a deal with the motoboys, so they would buy gas from her. She also had a stand at the market where she would sell it. Chitara also got mixed up in politics. She made history.”
