Frei Betto

Brazilian Dominican friar, writer and activist · Brazil · On the map · Writers · Born 1944 · age 82

Carlos Alberto Libânio Christo, better known as Frei Betto, is a Brazilian writer, political activist, philosopher, liberation theologian, and Dominican friar.

Frei Betto is read about 80 times a day, in 13 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 12 June 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
