The "Women Against Cunha" Protest
The "Women Against Cunha" Protest
Rio de Janeiro
12/11/2015

Protesters, two of them with megaphones, demonstrated against Bill (PL) 5,069, proposed by Congressman Eduardo Cunha, which aimed to restrict access to legal abortion for women who are victims of rape. The demonstrations, which gathered thousands of women across Brazil, were organized through social media, marking the beginning of a new model of feminist cyber-activism, known as the "Women's Spring." In the background, a handmade sign reads, "The poor die #we are all clandestine."
