📅 15 Maart 2018 📍 Brazilië

The day after the killings, thousands gathered in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and other cities to mourn Marielle Franco and Anderson Gomes and demand answers. Protesters carried the case beyond a local criminal investigation, connecting it to racism, police violence, gendered political repression, and the vulnerability of Black public figures. “Marielle presente” became a transnational rallying cry. Public mobilization kept pressure on authorities, though justice and accountability remained a prolonged struggle.
