Despite the backlash, women are driving resistance to repression in Brazil


So, encouraging progress in the struggle for women’s rights has to be backed up by constant action for dignity, equality and justice for women of all classes, colors and backgrounds. It’s important we recognise, globally, that this struggle is intersectional and international, and it requires connecting all strategies broadly to go beyond just giving equal access to women and girls in society, but calling “for a radical transformation of society based on the twin principles of equity and justice”.

I wish I could say my sisters support this. For them, Brazil is someplace far away they don't want to bother with.
