How strong is your connection with your German heritage? Or better formulated what is your emotional bond with it?
The sense of honor is of so fine and delicate a nature that
it is only to be met with in minds which are naturally noble or
cultivated by good examples and a refined education.
- Sir Richard Steele

How strong is German heritage and culture in southern Brazil? Do the German brazilians speak German as the first language in the home? Is German TV and radio available ?? (satellite etc) I am curious as obviously portugese must be enforced throughout the country..

HISTORY IS NOT HISTORY - UNLESS IT IS THE 100% TRUTH
Unfortunately nowadays German is not the first language. Some people can speak some words or some phrases like "Guten Morden", "Wie Geht's" at most. In past, German language was prohibited by President Getúlio Vargas, when he declared war on Germany. Nowadays, this prohibition don't exists, but it was the excuse for the loss of cultural identity. Most who want to learn German search for courses in language schools. German TV is avaliabe in satellite and early radio was avaliable in Shortwave radio (about today I don't know), both Deutsche Welle.Originally Posted by Untersberger
