Cultural / Context information for the jury
Palmeiras is an Italian-founded Brazilian football club, created by members of the Italian colony in Sao Paulo, more than 100 years ago. As an “foreign club” in Brazil, Palmeiras became a club that all immigrants over the country instantly felt connected with. As we know, the feeling of being an immigrant in a foreign country is very much related to the feeling of a resistance. Immigrants count on each other to resist and remain. This feeling grew on the way the Palmeiras fans relate to the club, and if there is a symbol of this resistance it’s the green color. Palmeiras is the only big club in Brazil who had the green as it’s color. So, whenever you see a green place, you know you will find your people there. Green became the symbol of this feeling of resistance. Green is the only place a Palmeiras fan feels like home.
