On June 4, dozens of activists from the League of Revolutionary Youth held a demonstration in the Vila Cruzeiro favela in the city of Rio de Janeiro, where the Highway Police (PRF) and the Special Operations Battalion (BOPE) carried out a massacre last week on May 24.
Activists held a banner that read, "Out with the murderous police, out of the favelas!" and distributed hundreds of leaflets to people passing by, near the international market. Residents stopped to talk to the youths who distributed the flyers and denounced the murderous actions of the armed forces.
Through a megaphone, the massacre carried out by the police was denounced. The action of the youth revolutionaries also called on the masses to reject the electoral farce. In addition to police violence, the action also rejected starvation, inflation and attacks on people's rights.
