A beautiful and courageous gesture by Julia, in front of a legion of surfers who, in addition to being depoliticized, have in her sympathizers and defenders of the current president who has in her intimate circle, declared enemies of the murdered sociologist and politician.

However, and as unexpected as it may seem, Julia Santos’ publication accumulates many likes and messages of support for the Marielle case. Including a comment by Anielle Franco, marked in the athlete’s publication.

Professional athlete Alex Ribeiro was also present in the comments in support of the post, which already sounds like a manifesto.

Santos is expected to act with such courage! As for Marielle, may she be present, always, on boards and thoughts, until the day when her real murderer, the mastermind, is known and punished.

So, who knows, evoking your presence will no longer be so necessary. So that your memory can be linked to your beautiful trajectory and legacy, never to your stupid end is unacceptable.
