On the 21st, there will be a celebration at the Planalto Palace in which measures will be announced to increase the presence of black women in the federal public service. In addition, a coordination for the health of the black population will be established with the Ministry of Health and six lands belonging to quilombola peoples who have been awaiting regularization for over 20 years will also be titled years.
The minister also promised education and culture actions with quilombola communities in the first 100 days of the government, and recalled that this is a request from President Lula.
In the speech to students, teachers and employees of ENSP / Fiocruz, Anielle Franco recalled the first moments after the murder of her sister, councilor Marielle Franco. “We cannot forget that Mari was the victim of a political femicide”, said the minister. “I will never forgive. I will never forgive having looked at that woman speaking and never having thought of having security for her. Never in my life will I accept this”, said the minister.
In addition, the minister reinforced that black women are victims of violence politics for years, and that studies conducted by the Marielle Franco Institute in 2020 and 2021 showed that these cases are recurrent.
“Marielle had to die, be murdered the way she was, cruelly, so that other people could gain private security, car armored and had the notion that black women politicians need security too, in addition to white men", said Anielle Frank.
