Brazil, the 20th of November. A Holiday - Feriado da Consciência Negra - Black Conscience day.

A 40 year old black man, João Alberto Silveira Freitas, was beaten to death by two security guards at a Carrefour supermarket after a discussion. 

This spiked up protests with the “black lives matter” motto translated into Portuguese - “vidas pretas importam” - all over the country. Also, we’re now burning a few supermarkets.
