Women's Day slideshow



Brazilian Women's Day was celebrated with the World March of Womem and joined protests against war and G. W. Bush politics, at his brazilian visit. During the walking, a small group of "punks" and protesters, not more than 15 young, tryied to close the avenue lying down in front of some cars and provoking disturbs.
São Paulo's Military Police Force chose to explode gas bombs and shoot plastic bullets in a crowd of almost 10.000 protesters, hurting people and causing panic, as a way to control this group of young.

Mostly of the brazilian editorial media focused only the violence, accusing all the protesters of an "infantile, bizarre and innocuous spectacle".

Well, I tell a different story about this day.
