Despite considering the title “so patriarchal”, Janja da Silva is now officially the first lady of Brazil since mid-afternoon this Sunday (1) and hours after the inauguration of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, she made her first publication on a social network.

“A dream that we dream together becomes a conquest and reality!”, She began in the caption of a photo of the historic ascent of the Palácio do Planalto ramp. “Today is one of the happiest days of our lives. All of the Brazilian people are beginning a new chapter of rights, citizenship and respect today. We are now beginning, together and together, to write a new chapter in our democracy. The Brazil of the Future is now!” concluded sociologist Rosângela Silva.

Lula walked up the ramp accompanied by representatives of Brazilian diversity, as well as the family dog, Resistência. The entourage consisted of a black boy, an indigenous leader, an influencer from the PCD community, a teacher, a metallurgist and a waste picker. In addition to them, two more supporters of the Lula Livre Vigil, a movement that camped in front of the headquarters of the Federal Police in Paraná, in Curitiba, when he was arrested from April 2018 to November 2019.

In Stories, Janja also opened up another moment of the inauguration in Brasília: the couple disembarking from the presidential Rolls Royce, before arriving at the Planalto Palace: “the first steps towards a new Brazil”, she captioned the video.
