Santos forward Marinho used his social media to hold a protest on Friday afternoon, Black Awareness Day.
Peixe 11’s shirt unveiled on a case that occurred last Thursday night in Porto Alegre, where a black man was beaten to death by two white security guards from a supermarket chain.
– Black Awareness Day. Maybe I still think it only exists on the calendar, and to post a photo saying Black Lives matters. In practice we know that it is all the other way around, an absurd news that we have about the death of João Alberto yesterday in the Carrefour parking lot in Porto Alegre. So I ask, will there be severe punishment, will bandits be arrested? Or they will post bail and be released for another crime. Reflection of a prejudiced society for a bastard – said Marinho.

The target of racial injuries in a recent broadcast, Marinho promised, in a recent interview with SporTV’s Bem Amigos, not to rest in the fight against racism. At the time, he cited the example of Lewis Hamilton, Formula 1’s top star, and Lebron James, also one of the NBA’s top stars, and said he would not stop fighting prejudice.
– When Hamilton does that, Lebron does it in the United States, they have a lot of respect. If you are going to do it in Brazil it is very mimimi, “Nutella”, this and that. But I will defend the flag because many people go through this and do not have an active voice. I don’t care what they say about me. The important thing for me is to know, to look at others, at the people who go through it daily, suffer from it at work and cannot speak, otherwise they will be fired.
– It hurts us. Because outside people speak and have respect, receive a hug from everyone. Here, if we are going to defend, many people come and still criticize. I think it’s only in Brazil. It’s like I said, regardless of what they say about me, I will always be fighting for what I think is right – said Marinho.
