Brazil: Violence against Women Targeted by Protesters in Rio
  • 8 years ago
Around two to three hundred topless protesters demonstrated in Rio on Saturday against violence against women. With a woman killed every two hours, Brazil is the fifth deadliest country for women in the world. The march was organized by the SlutWalk movement, which opposes the blaming of women for their own rape. The demonstration was also the second this week in Rio to protest new abortion restriction proposed by the conservative Speaker of the Lower House of Congress, Eduardo Cunha. teleSUR
