Despite the refusal, he considers the election of Lula important, who makes Brazilians “breathe better” and represents the rescue of Brazil
The writer and philosopher Djamila Ribeiro it excludes the possibility of composing the government of the president-elect Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT), even though he supported the candidacy of candidate PT. In an exclusive interview with LandDjamila said she was in “another time” in life.
Despite the rejection, he considers Lula’s election important, as he lets the Brazilians “breathe a bit” and represents a salvation for Brazil.
“Everyone asks me and I say no, I don’t even want it. I support it, but I don’t want it,” she said.
A leading thinker on racial issues in Brazil, Djamila Ribeiro highlighted the need for the new government to expand cultural policies in order to restore a sense of pride to Brazilians.
“Our fight is for rights, to expand rights, not to fight setbacks,” he added.
The philosopher also drew attention to the need for the country to open up to the world. For her, the reaction of other countries, which immediately recognized Lula’s victory at the polls, indicates Brazil’s isolation.
New ‘Black Panther’
Djamila Ribeiro has been chosen by Disney as an ambassador for the film ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever‘ in Brazil. The superhero movie imagines what an African nation would be like with high technological potential and no contact with other countries. Full of representativeness, this second feature film still focuses on women.
In a conversation with reporters, Djamila stressed the importance of a big production directed by and starring black people to be a box office success. For her, it reinforces that there are people interested in these stories and it’s important that different audiences have access to the film.
“From now on, it’s our responsibility, how we can bring this to other people,” he said, reflecting that just a cultural product won’t be able to reduce inequalities. “We need public policies in Brazil. We cannot expect a film to solve our age-old problems.”
