It is with profound sadness that the passing of Nathália Urban, a dedicated Brazilian journalist and anti-imperialist activist, is being reported. Nathália tragically died in Edinburgh, Scotland, where she had lived for many years. She was only 36 years old.
Nathália made significant contributions to journalism, working with outlets such as Brasil Wire, Brasil247, Jacobin Brasil, and collaborating with others like Orinoco Tribune. Her passion for her work and her commitment to justice left a lasting impact on those who knew her. She also participated in discussions on platforms like the ANTICONQUISTA news livestream Nuestra América, where her knowledge and humility stood out.
The circumstances of her death are currently under investigation by Scottish police, following reports that she may have fallen from a bridge. Nathália had openly shared her struggles with severe depression in her recent social media posts, which some believe may have contributed to this tragedy.
Her passing is a stark reminder of the silent battles many face. For those who are struggling, it is vital to reach out for help. Whether through friends, family, or professional support, no one should bear the burden of depression alone. Nathália’s life, though tragically cut short, serves as a call to connect and support one another through life’s darkest moments.
Her legacy as a journalist and activist will live on, but her loss is deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
