Description

A black, grey and white stencil-style painting of Marielle Franco is surrounded by red roses. A quote from Marielle is written above her head in black and red letters: "Quantos mais vão precisar morrer para que esta guerra acabe?" (How many more will have to die for this war to end?)

Marielle Franco was a Black Brazilian feminist and activist against police brutality, assassinated in March 2018. The quote references some of Marielle's last words before her assassination, reacting to the death of yet another young black man killed by Rio de Janeiro's military police.
