(en) Brazil, OSL: Solidarity with the Popular Resistance Movement (MRP) (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Wed, 15 Jan 2025 09:06:37 +0200


We join the fight for the right to housing and express our full solidarity with the Popular Resistance Movement (MRP) and its members, who continue to be persecuted and unjustly convicted for fighting for the right to housing in Brasília.---- It is unacceptable that, instead of guaranteeing decent housing, the government and the justice system act to repress leaders like Edson Silva and 10 other activists, convicted in the second instance by the TJDFT based on accusations without concrete evidence, supported by weak and questionable testimonies. This persecution has been going on since 2015, after the occupation of abandoned properties like the Saint Peter Hotel in Brasília.

The criminalization of social movements, aggravated under the governments of Rodrigo Rollemberg (PSB) and Ibaneis Rocha (MDB), is a direct attack on homeless families and those who fight for social justice. The arrest of leaders and activists, as in the recent case of the Terra Prometida encampment, demonstrates the oppressive nature of a policy that favors real estate speculation to the detriment of fundamental rights, such as housing.

We reiterate: we demand the immediate dismissal of all cases against Edson Silva and other MRP activists! The fight for housing is not a crime, it is a right.

We will continue to defend the MRP, which resists by organizing demonstrations, solidarity campaigns and demanding dignity for the marginalized population.

DISMISS THE CASE NOW! FULL SUPPORT FOR THE MRP!

OSL, December 2024.
