Editor's note

Sandra de Sá, a voice for pride and samba.

A Brazilian singer whose 1984 song 'Olhos Coloridos' became an anthem for racial and LGBTQ+ rights.

For a quick sense of her, listen to 'Olhos Coloridos' and 'Do Leme Ao Pontal.' They frame her blend of protest and rhythm neatly.

Her debut album in 1984 included 'Olhos Coloridos,' a song about racial pride that resonated widely. In the 1990s, she performed it at an LGBTQ+ rally to counter homophobic remarks, cementing its role as a protest anthem. Tracks like 'Charles Anjo 45' and 'Do Leme Ao Pontal' show her range across samba and collaborations with artists like Margareth Menezes.

She started singing in Rio's churches and samba schools before her 1984 debut. Over the years, she worked with Gilberto Gil and Chico Buarque, and her songs shifted from personal themes to broader social statements.
