Brazilian slave laborer Francisco Borges de Souza bleeds from the side of his nose as he cuts down forest with his scythe on the Bom Jesus farm in the Amazon basin, some 1,6000km north of Brasilia. As teams of govermment inspectors and federal police step up their quest to free an estimated 25,000 slave labors, there is no doubt that Brazil's feudal slavery traditions are still alive and well in pockets of its hardscrabble northeast, more than a century after the practice was abolished.
