Description
Four years after the murder of her friend and outspoken black- and LGBTQ-rights campaigner Marielle Franco, Renata Souza carries on the slain Rio de Janeiro city councillor's fight, running for reelection as a state lawmaker in Brazil's October 2 elections. Souza, who, like Franco, defines herself as "a black woman from the favela", is following in Franco's footsteps by daring to fight for the rights of poor people and black people in a deeply divided Brazil, becoming a standard-bearer against racism in the eyes of Rio de Janeiro's political elite.
