Braziliency is the positive capacity of people to overcome stress and catastrophe through the power of Brazil.
This is exemplified with the joy, culture and life of those Brazilians living and thriving in the Favelas.
Braziliency has expanded over the years to include anyone who uses the music and culture of Brazil to overcome stress, heartache and disaster. Even the thought of an upcoming trip to Brazil can catalyze the resilience needed to survive the most dismal of weeks.
To see a visual of Braziliency, please see the Vengaboys music video for their song "To Brazil."

The opposite of a man on the Down Low. This is a man who has sex with men but identifies with the gay community. He is upfront about his sexual identity to friends, family members, coworkers and his community. He feels strongly part of the great social, political and legal struggle for GLBT equality. He lives on the Up High as part of the struggle to normalize GLBT people for the public and make GLBT communities presence known.
Antoine: Hey, is Tyson on down low?
DeMarco: Fool, what are you talking up about? Tyson marches in the gay pride parade, writes to his Senators about gay stuff AND volunteers at a gay/HIV and AIDS clinic. Tyson's on the Up High!
