Chico Whitaker

Is another legislature possible?

By CHICO WHITAKER: If the current Congress seems like a caricature of Brazilian society – white, male and millionaire – the fault lies not only with the electoral system, but with our passivity. Accepting vote buying as “normal” is to be complicit

Where to start political reform in Brazil?

By CHICO WHITAKER: The deterioration between the Executive and Legislative branches is not a cyclical crisis, but a structural consequence of an electoral system based on vote buying that replaces ideological debates with commercial transactions

Human Rights Bench

By CHICO WHITAKER: Amid disbelief in politics, a human rights group is born in the São Paulo City Council to challenge the traditional power game

Parliamentary majorities

By CHICO WHITAKER: Will radically different electoral campaigns for Municipal Chambers be possible in 2024?

Participatory vote

By CHICO WHITAKER: We have to find democratic ways to confront the scourge of depoliticization and disinformation, so that profiteers do not inflate opportunistic majorities

coup d'état live

By CHICO WHITAKER:
The coup attempt made possible a great front for democracy, uniting the Three Powers of the Republic and civil society

Lessons from Brazil's victory

By CHICO WHITAKER & ODED GRAJEW:
What lesson can we at the World Social Forum draw from what happened in Brazil, while the noise of confrontation persists?

Caixa’s payroll loan scam

By CHICO WHITAKER:
This scam will make many people desperate with the debt that will result from it, when they stop receiving the Brazil Aid

Who to vote for in the legislature?

By CHICO WHITAKER:
Almost all members of the current federal legislature are representatives of the 1% at the top of the social pyramid.

Indignation

By CHICO WHITAKER:
We need to move from indignation to action if we really want things to change.

lifelines

By CHICO WHITAKER:
With the clock ticking down to the decisive minute, we are all called upon to turn our outrage into action.

Remove Bolsonaro

By CHICO WHITAKER:
Every day that passes with this execrable person in charge of the government more destructive initiatives he takes

A suicide pact?

By CHICO WHITAKER:
Bolsonaro should have already fallen in the face of the crimes he committed, but the opposite is happening and they are normalizing everything unacceptable with general attention focused only on the electoral process

The cry of the “powerless”

By CHICO WHITAKER; MARCELO BARROS; RAFAEL RODRIGUES and WALDIR AUGUSTI: It has become urgent and essential to remove the President of the Republic. We can no longer wait for impeachment or the 2022 elections
