Among the movements that organized the demonstration are the Coletivo Estrela da Democracia, the International Front of Brazilians Against the Coup (Fibra), and the Women United Against Bolsonaro group.
“Since winning the elections, deforestation has exploded, the murder of indigenous people, blacks, women, gays and popular leaders, the systematic attack on culture, education, the increase in precarious work, the stagnation of the economy. (… ) At the same time, the truculence of the President’s supporters increased, which has at its side violent and greedy militias, military and police, longing for the dictatorship and the most ignorant, inhuman and petty people in that country “, said the organization.
Organizers also cite the high number of Covid-19 cases in the country, the underreporting of the disease, the precarious situation of some hospitals, the lack of support for health professionals, as well as the lack of a mandatory confinement decree to contain the spread of the virus in Brazil.
“The recipe for Bolsonarist ideology has aggravated the Brazilian political crisis. If they are not contained in time, the country will live in chaos and misery for decades and will make our lives a nightmare. Now enough! (…) We are on the right side history and we will not rest until we overthrow the current government, and get all our social, human, environmental, labor and economic rights back “, added the organizing movements of the act.
