A symbolic move of great value was made by the Brazilian authorities showing their solidarity with Vinicius Jr, who was the victim of a racist attack for the umpteenth time in Spanish stadiums, in Sunday’s match against Valencia at the Mestalla. Monday night “darkened” for one hour the statue of Christ the Redeemer on top of Corcovado Hill in Rio de Janeiro.
This move moved the Real player. “Dark and imposing. Christ the Redeemer was just like that. An action of solidarity that moves me. But above all I want to inspire and bring more light to our struggle. I really appreciate all the chain of affection and support I have received over the past few months. Both in Brazil and around the world. I know exactly who is who. Count on me because the good are the majority and I will not give up. I have a purpose in life and if I have to suffer more and more so that future generations do not go through similar situations, I am ready and preparedVinicius said.
Preto e imponente. Cristo Redentor fico assim ha pouco. Uma acao de solidariedade que me emociona. Mas quero, sobretudo, inspirar e tracer mais luz a nossa luta.
