Following the election of far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro, who has openly praised the torture and killings of Brazil’s past military dictatorship and threatened to cleanse Brazil of the left, we have launched a statement in support of social progress, equality and human rights in Brazil.
Please sign the Brazil Solidarity Initiative statement today.
FreeLula – Add Your Name Today! Sunday, April 7th 2019, marks one year since the jailing of former Brazilian president Lula da Silva for carrying out ‘indeterminate acts of corruption.’
Add your name the millions in Brazil and around the world calling for Lula’s freedom here.
