We have to end structural racism that offends, strikes, and kills.

lula is trying to privatize prisions, the overwhelming majority of people in there are the black youths he said he wanted to protect.

he sure has a way with words, but words alone are completely meaningless.

This, basically. International Lula is the best. Domestic Lula is almost worthless, and his biggest merit is not being Bolsonaro. His conciliatory/let's-be-friends playbook will pave the way for the next far-right lunatic and probably get him in trouble again.
