Os manifestantes estavam se juntando aos protestos contra a morte de Floyd nos EUA?

Floyd, a black man, died after a white Minneapolis police officer pressed a knee on his
neck even after he pleaded for air. Floyd repeatedly said ‘ I can’t breathe’. Hundreds of
demonstrators protested in downtown Rio de Janeiro against racism and police killings of
black people on Sunday. The protesters weren’t just joining protests against Floyd’s death

in the U.S., but also denouncing the killing of black people in Rio’s favelas. The most
recent case was João Pedro Pinto, 14, who was inside his house on May 18 in Sao
Gonçalo, a city in Rio’s metropolitan area, when police chasing alleged drug traffickers
shot into the house. The protesters on Sunday carried banners reading “Black mothers
can’t stand crying anymore.” In Sao Paulo, another demonstratation ended with clashes
between a small group of protesters and the police.
