Animated by the decision that made the former president () defendant on charges, left movements marked a sequence of acts throughout this week against amnesty requests to those involved in the acts of January 8 and in memory of the 61 years of the military coup.
At least 30 demonstrations were announced between Friday (28) and Tuesday (1st) in 20 cities.
The fronts without fear and popular Brazil will make 29 mobilizations in municipalities in various states of the country. Already the collective of lawyers prerogatives will promote an act on Monday (31), at PUC-SP (Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo), in the state capital.
For the second year in a row, the Government (PT) will not perform official acts in memory of the date that marks the 1964 military coup.
Last year, on the 60th anniversary, the president not to do neither criticism nor ceremonies linked to the theme, in an attempt not to tense the relationship with the military.
In 2025, however, the climate provided by Bolsonaro’s trial encouraged groups close to the government to remember the date.
The Prerogatives Group-with at least five members in public positions in Lula management-coordinates the public act without amnesty at PUC-SP, which will feature historical members of the PT, such as José Dirceu and José Genoino. The motto is opposed to forgiveness to those involved on January 8 and the anniversary of the 1964 coup.
Part of the group expressed regret for not organizing any events last year. Government member showed a certain discomfort with the act, according to interlocutors. For a member of the National Secretariat of the PT, who said he understands symbolism, the theme of amnesty should not be addressed, because he could intensify tension in the country.
The former president of the Truth Commission of Sao Paulo Adriano Diogo (PT) says that another important factor for the act of PUC-SP was the repercussion of the film “”, which tells the story of former Deputy Rubens Paiva, killed by the dictatorship.
“The fault of not having anything official from the government last year was José Múcio [ministro da Defesa, responsável pela articulação com o Exército]. What changed the conjuncture was the movie and I’m still here, so much so that the Paiva family was received at the Planalto Palace, “said Adriano Diogo.
Last year, Lula said he would rather not be “brooding” over the 1964 coup because this and he wanted to “play the country forward”.
Asked, the president of the prerogatives, Marco Aurélio de Carvalho, said he did not consider the attitude of the omissive government.
“Lula has celebrated the victory of democracy on January 8, which is also a way of recalling the periods that our country went through. We, as a civil society, will do our part,” he said.
The Ministry of Human Rights and Citizenship stated that the portfolio demonstrates, through actions, its commitment to democracy, the truth and memory of the political history of Brazil. In a note, he highlighted actions in March on the subject.
Among them is the apology of Minister Macaé Evaristo to the families of the dead and missing by the negligence of the custody and identification of remnants of the Perus ditch.
Despite the lack of official events by the government, the fronts without fear and popular Brazil are waiting for the act of Sunday (30), in São Paulo, paintings of the Lula government base, such as the PT leader in the Lindbergh Farias Chamber (PT-RJ) and also deputies Erika Hilton (PT-SP) and (-SP).
The idea is a walk from Paulista Avenue to the former DOI – Codi (Information Operations Detachment – Internal Defense Operations Center), the main torture center of the military dictatorship in the city.
The fronts are integrated by PT, PSOL, PCdoB, PV and Network militants, as well as entities such as CUT (Single Workers’ Central), MST (Landless Rural Workers Movement), MTST (Homeless Workers Movement) and UNE (National Students Union).
National coordinator of the MTST and the Povo Sem FEAR Front, Ana Paula Ribeiro says that the proximity of the dates of Bolsonaro’s complaint and the 1964 coup has made the act even more symbolic.
“We wanted to gather these two guidelines because they relate too much. Bolsonaro, in their four years of government, invested in this theme [da ditadura] Saying it was not a blow, he fueled the political life of the military, treated the military of the dictatorship as heroes. And we continue on the streets for memory and justice, remembering the prisoners and tortured in the dictatorship and acting so that it does not repeat themselves, “he said.
She also said that social movements have always spoken on the date, regardless of federal government support. “It is a government option [a ausência de atos oficiais]It is not up to us to judge in this regard, “he said.
The group will also express repudiation of the articulations in Congress by amnesty to those involved in the attacks of January 8.
“Brazil requires justice,” said Guilherme Boulos, who has been publications on social networks calling for the act in Sao Paulo.
