Brazilians are trying to come to terms with the Jan. 8 riot that rocked their young democracy. The divisions on violent display that day are still evident across Brazilian society.
Some are disgusted with the chaos that unfolded; others are worried their nation is headed toward communist dictatorship. Some just want to get on with their lives.“It seems we can’t have a moment of rest,” Laura Pereira said while walking her dog, Corina. “It was like the screenwriter of ‘the Brazil show’ has gone crazy.”She says that the new president’s decisive reaction to the riot “sends a very good message that someone is in charge.
Carvalho said she is worried about where the country is headed: “I am afraid that Brazil will become a country like Cuba, a communist dictatorship.”Kelson Henrique, a mounted police officer, was on the scene when the protest got out of control. “I imagine that these people do not accept what is different, they do not accept seeing an Indigenous person, like me, going up the ramp with the president of Brazil,” he said. “They are attached to a traditionalism that can no longer exist.”“I’m apolitical,” Dilza Ferreira Jacó said as she picked flowers in one of the many gardens in the city.
