247 - The march of the Free Brazil Movement to Brasília to demand the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff began with 28 people in São Paulo, this Friday (24). The organizers of the so-called “march for freedom” expect to arrive in the federal capital on May 27. They left from Praça Panamericana, in the west of the city, at 13 pm, and took the Bandeirantes highway, accompanied by a similar number of police officers.
According to the movement's organizers, they expected low participation "because many people think the march is crazy." They hope to gain more support before reaching Brasília. They are accompanied by a support vehicle. A bus carrying the participants' luggage will meet them at a gas station, where they will spend the night.
