Brazil: A topless protest in Rio downtown

Categories: Latin America, Brazil, Humor, Protest

Walter Valdevino posts pictures at Nova Corja [1] [pt] of an unusual protest in Brazil, when a 28 year old artist protested going topless in the centre of Rio de Janeiro City. “Dressed only in a biquini bottom, the candidate for Miss Flamengo [2] walked about 15 meters with Brazil's flag on her back and then took a taxi, for the sadness of the guys near by”. She protested against hunger, injustice and politicians’ broken promises.
