Rio de Janeiro

Portrait of a protester holding a handmade sign that reads “politics, darkness, religion” during a demonstration 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 protests, 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."
